Finally by Arabian Oud {R}


Finally

It’s finally time to leave this cage,
I once called my home,
A place full of peace and security,
But now everything reminds me of you,
Haunts me day and night,
I thought you would always be there,
But that was a big lie,
Hoping to hear from you everyday,
I spent time thinking about you,
Hoping you were next to me,
That look in your face, drove me crazy,
But all that is plain history now,
I am so lonely now again,
I tried to unleash the pain,
And run away so many times,
But every attempt was a failure,
Coz deep down, I had hope,
Wishing you would come back,
And hug me so tight,
Kiss my worries away so bright,
Everyone told me I was dreaming,
I locked myself into deafness,
And slowly drifted into darkness,
But now I hear my voice echo,
My heart questions you,
Where are you my beloved?
Did you ever think of me,
Miss me and love me?
It’s finally time to leave,
I was living in a cage,
You once called ‘ our home’,
You kept telling me,
I couldn’t leave,
But today,
As I walk away into darkness,
I know you will be suffering ahead,
And it is now, you shall realise my worth,
Coz you never valued my existence,
I am finally free, as a bird,
Eager to search the true meaning of life.

Your words are very well written and i love the ending!

We have to let go of our pasts sometimes, the burden of that is to much to bear..start fresh and make a new better life, and Thank Allah you were blessed with the chance to do that....

I hope one day I am set free and never feel so insecure ever..

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...
