sad love (Remove filter)
Love you? Love my dog.
Her four paws
could conquer Everest.
Yet your two legs
continue to stagger,
tripping over our love,
As if peppered with stumbling blocks.
Her brown eyes
Emote a tender love.
Yet your shiny blues,
reflect less than nothing,
gazing critically at others
As if weakness demeans them
Her demeanour
Conveys contentment.
Yet your stolidity.

Happiness
Happiness was you. Happiness was us. Happiness was us and a cat. Now it’s just a cat. Not even our memories are happiness, tainted by the reality of which I’m living. Every trip down memory lane is a reminder that it’s just me and our beautiful boy. No memory looks the same as it was. Every laugh, every tear, every whisper, every hand that connected, every time you said I love you, means nothing n...

Don't Tell Me
Don't tell me about sadness
I have felt it all along
Before my body knew how to ache
Before it bled to every wounds you made
Don't tell me to keep promises
I've always dealt with lies, bad ones
Long before I knew love could trade me for some kind of infidelity
Before it sold the truth to buy back the dishonesty
Don't ask me to put on a smile
I've tried it my whole life
Before these ...

The Darkest Night
Please guide me home
for tonight I wont be able to walk alone
I need soft-spoken eyes to show me the way
I need pure loving hands to tap on my shoulders
Kind-hearted soul for my heart to release this pain
I think I can't go any further
I know I've lost the track, can't find the right path to come back
I've screwed everything since the awake of the universe
I've forgotten what it's like to ...

The Missing Piece
I look for something that can't be found.
Though I search all night and day.
The memories of pain left a hole once more.
For my eyes are swollen as I cry.
That my heart was left sore.
For my answers will be found in the land that I am bound.
I am missing a piece of my heart.
And how I long for that piece.
I have a heartfelt need for that piece that can't be found.
Though...

Unsteady
Fire cracks through the wind, is this what I am here for?
This fire is my soul and it seems to be dying so slowly.
Griping my very own seat of a rollercoaster hoping this ride could come to a calm.
This unsteadily feeling that I keep getting whenever I get close to you.
Its so dangerous for my heart.
Even though I feel like fighting for my broken soul..
It keeps being dragged awa...

Old Flame
Though irretrievably
We had missed the boat
And in the meantime comfort
From many a consort
I did sought,
Still your substitute
I haven't got
From the lot
Fate's wind
On its sway has brought.
Yesterday's old flame
Has conveyed to me
The same!

I'm to leave now
By: Ali Taha Alnobani
I'm to leave now
A tall ghost is carrying my bag
A long street is walking behind me
A mad merchant bought my smiles
And no water to renew the dusk
I can't have my step begun
Even if the rain washed my tears
***
I'm to leave now
Can I have a deep look at your eyes?
Can I take my dreams, your smile
And my dried red rose?
