Lagenda Budak Setan

this is really a good book! by Ahadiat Akashah. A Malaysian writer.

i got this from the book

it's just beautiful.

I never try to impress the queen with my writing

or making the birds sing

or the phones ring

i never want to make you cry

or die

or sigh

I just want to write because i HAVE to write

i just want to write about things i knew RIGHT

so sorry if the writing is about heart

or blood

or tart

because i'm going to write about what i'm going to write

whether the writing is about ride

or guide

or kite

and i never give a DAMN whether

you like it

or HATE it

or yell about it

because i write for what i have to write

and of course i'm going to write

a special book for you to read

not to greet

or spit

just read

and read

till the last deed

reading this while listening to the songs that we used to sing together.

wondering about the tragic love story of Kasyah and Ayu.

it gave me a stronger will to write.

and to write till the end.

to write till my fingers are all crooked.

to write till the last piece of paper.

and to write about anything and everything.

who cares if you want to criticise or curse.

it really doesn't matter anymore.

i don't care what will happen next.

maybe i am too engrossed.

or maybe i am just emotional.

but what happens next.

will eventually happen.

there's nothing to worry about.

i really do miss the time when we were younger.

when running seems so fun.
