Never had the time by Arabian Oud {R}


Ever since this connection began,
My heart pounded in so much pain,
At first it felt so special and deep,
Never felt this way ever before,
Love you play another trick again,
Trying to trap me into this game,
I have had my share of sorrows,
Can you forget me and find another,
Love felt so special and so right,
But I was wrong all over again,
It was all about him and never me,
Trying to make this work so right,
Everyday that passed brought hopes,
And
Every night saw them die in silence,
They call me a carefree spirit all along,
Full of life and never ever giving up,
But I was human enough to weaken,
Then distances fell in between,
And
I found myself alone everyday,
Attention you say I am after,
It wasn’t suppose to be about me or you,
Thought it was something called love,
Then
Why did you take us away from each other,
Why did you portray me as a demon?
Making me wait all those long nights,
You kept cheating me, yet you refuse,
Playing with my heart and those mind games,
Patience running low, time running out,
You never had the time to know me,
Those words churn to repeat as excuse,
Nothing but lame excuses to keep apart,
You never needed me in your life,
Not even fitting in your life at all,
But you make it sound as if I am wrong,
You pour excuses and want me to stay,
But it’s too late now to hold me back,
My feelings have dried out like a dry leaf,
My heart escalating in silent mourning,
I couldn’t stop myself from loving you,
But I had to let myself go in the unknown,
I had hoped you would realise,
What it means to love and to be loved,
Not take and never give back.
If only you stepped out from your world
And made it work as our world.

حامل الهوى تعب. أبو نواس. ( The One Burdened With Passion Is Weary. Abu Nuwas [d. 814 AD]) on Arabian Oud {R}

حامل الهوى تعب ـــ يستخفه الطرب If he cries, it is right for him [to do so] - what he has is no game. إن بكى يحق له ـــ ليس ما به لعب Whenever one cause [of pain] comes to an end - from you, [another] cause returns to me. كلما انقضى سبب ـــ منك عاد لي سبب You laugh obliviously - as the lover weeps. تضحكين لاهية ـــ والمحب ينتحب You marvel at my sickness - my health is the marvel. تعجبين من سقمي ـــ صحتي هي العجب

MISUNDERSTOOD- by Arabian Oud {R}

MISUND ERSTOOD At first they you pretend you care, But in reality you were ignorant, You offered help by lipservice, Nothing practical at all, Everytime I was depressed, You thought it was plain drama, Kept saying 'grow up girl', Changes were noticed slowly, The one day you went away, Here I was seeking love and support, Even my friends abandoned me, Everytime they met,it was about them, I pondered on what I had achieved, But there was no answer at all, They don't understand my problems, They never asked, expecting my life go-lucky, Here I am, Sitting on the bed, surrounded by dark walls, Tears keep flowing down nonstop, Wished there was someone by my side, Wiping them away, hearing my pain out, They call me names and think I am bad, They simply don't know my story, Love they say, is a medicine, But I seest that not, it only gives pain, They all called me immature and left, My heart was broken, the music stopped playing, Violins of my heart cried out so bad, Wished, the...

WHY WEAR A MASK? by Arabian Oud {R}

Why do some people wear a mask and betray you by showing to you they really care, love and like you but in reality they don't. They could be using you for a certain purpose, behave like your best pal but when their purpose is over, they vanish away in thin air, like they never existed around you. Over the recent times, I have come to experience this with a lot of people around me. When such people are confronted or questioned, they pretend they don't know what I am talking about. They turn into a deaf and dumb person. They are full of hypocricies, behaving to me your best friend but back stabbing you. There is a wonderful saying, which I shall like to share with you all, here it goes- 'A scorpion will always bite you, not because it has any enemity against you, but because it's part of it's nature.' No matter how much you do for someone they would possibly think they are special and deserve it all and in return they don't do a single thing for you. People h...
