karena kau ada

Hari ini, untuk kesekian kalinya aku
ketemu abi di pacific place.
Biasanya kami makan siang sambil
ngobrol. Aku merasa nyaman,
tentram di sampingnya.
Aneh memang. Dulu abi itu cowo
yang sangat menyebalkan. Cowo
borju yang ngeliat dia aja udah serasa
sakit mata.


Kini segalanya berbeda. Aku sedang
tidak ingin menganalisa mengapa.
Aku hanya ingin sesaat keluar,
escape dari keseharianku yang
terasa begitu melelahkan.


Aku dikenal sebagai sosok wanita yang
perkasa, serba bisa, super mom,
super woman, hanya karena aku tangguh
dalam pekerjaan dan juga di rumah.
Mereka kira aku ini bionic woman yang
berhati baja. Mereka tidak tahu aku juga
bisa lelah, bisa jatuh sakit seperti mereka.
Mereka tidak tahu aku juga
seorang wanita, yang butuh belaian
lembut, tepukan dan dekapan hangat,
saat aku sedang jatuh.


Aku tersentak oleh deringan handphone
abi. Ah... sorry, I was carried away.
'Duh.. bawel deh kalo udah nelpon gini'
Begitu kata abi saat menutup telpon dari
perempuannya. Perempuan yang
dipacarin lebih dari 7 tahun kini, dinikahi
kagak, diputusin juga enggak.


'Kalo udah sering ngeluh bawel gini,
kenapa gak disudahi saja, bi?' tanyaku.
Abi menatapku, diam sejenak dan
mengatakan demikian,


'Karena dia ada ketika aku susah, dia
tidak meninggalkanku ketika aku jatuh,
dia mendampingi hari-hariku ketika
semua orang meninggalkanku. .. Dia ada
untuk aku.'


Begitupun abi buatku, yang dia tidak
pernah tau. Dia ada untukku.
Dia satu-satunya lelaki yang tetap
memperlakukanku sebagai wanita.
Yang memang aku perlukan
walau seperkasa apapun kini, aku tetaplah
wanita yang membutuhkan perhatian
lelaki seperti abi.


Aku jadi ingat lagu ini...


For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through through it all


You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see\
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you


You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
