Maka pada suatu pagi hari ia ingin sekali menangis sambil berjalan tunduk sepanjang lorong itu. Ia ingin pagi itu hujan turun rintik-rintik dan lorong sepi agar ia bisa berjalan sendiri saja sambil menangis dan tak ada orang bertanya kenapa. Ia tidak ingin menjerit-jerit berteriak-teriak mengamuk memecahkan cermin membakar tempat tidur. Ia hanya ingin menangis lirih saja sambil berjalan sendiri dalam hujan rintik-rintik di lorong sepi pada suatu pagi. . Sapardi Djoko Damono
About This Quote

On a certain night this man wanted to cry while walking silently. He wanted it to rain heavily on that morning so that he could walk alone all the way while crying and no one would ask him why he was crying. He didn’t want to yell loudly bang until breaking down the windows in his bedroom. He only wanted to cry silently, walking alone in the rain on that rainy morning.
