Insecure by Arabian Oud {R}

I wish you knew how I felt right now,

Listen to my heart, it's beating so fast,

Hiding the pain for so long,

now I can't stand,

It's weeping endlessly in dark shades,

I wish you could hear me out baby,

It's a rainy morning in London,

I am thinking about you all along,

I wish I could hold your hands,

And close my eyes,

Saying to myself, 'It's all gona be fine'I assure myself repeatedly,

But tell me o'beloved am I sane?

I fear I have turned manic,

You ask me why?It's your love, sweet heart,

I am drowned immensely in pain,

But there is joy in this pain,

For I seest my beloved everywhere,

I am so insecure, cries my heart,

Why does it feel, your going to leave me,

The fear of losing someone horrifies me,

I feel so speechless, so misunderstood,

Frustrated, hurt, saddened by those mean words,

Can you stop hurting me for once?

Coz I can't take it no more,

I am in love with you,

But you fail to see that,

I don't want to lose my beloved

Coz of another,I am an insecure soul,

Now I fear losing you,

For I am in love,Rumi,

they say love is pure,

But I feel that is a lie,

For every beloved says they love

But only a few can practice that.

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...

The heart an empty vessel by Arabian Oud {R}

The heart an empty vessel The heart is now an empty vessel, A single sound of screech laments, My soul is in an endless sorrow, My inspiration and my glimmer of hope, All washed away by the sea shore, All my hopes dashed into tiny pieces, There is darkness within the heart, Memories reside within of him, He was my inspiration and soul mate, But its always the same story, False promises, abandonment and loneliness, He said 'he was different', I believed him, Less did I know, That my fate was cursed till Doomsday, No mantra can undo my blackened luck, Love, you play games with me, Disguised in different faces, You cheat me, I wound I surrender to my defeat and darkness My heart is an empty vessel, A cursed organ..
