I miss - poem by Arabian Oud {R}


















I miss


I miss those days when I see sawed with you,
I miss making excuses for you when we were in trouble,
I miss lending my shoulder to you, when you cried,
I remember how you complaint about the other kid having a better toy,
I would giggle secretly and make you feel yours was better,
I miss the merry go round in our playground,
I miss my first crush, on the boy next door,
I miss us building our first tree house,
I miss our lemon tree, we would pluck some lemons,
I miss those days when we secretly had candies,
I miss those days when we played hide and seek,
I miss those days when we raced at school,
I miss those wonderful days when we were kids,
Where did those beautiful days vanish?
Where did we lose our innocence in this world?
Why did the complications of life intervene?
Why did I become a sacrificing goat each time,
I miss those days when my tears were counted by you,
You would lean to me and comfort me endlessly,
Whisper in your childish voice and laugh,
]Where did we lose all those days?
In the carnival of our busy lives, we forgot ourselves.
I miss those days so badly, hoping to get them back...
But because hope seems so far away and impossible,
I shall cherish these memories and live on...

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...
