With these open eyes
I look at this life
Everything is so perfect
I look around and smile
But when I close my eyes
The reality overcomes
I'm living a lie
The rain starts turning to a storm
Everything I knew,
Everything I lost,
I can't see it all around
And in these memories,
I start to drown
With these closed eyes
I see this life so clear
I should wake up from this living dream
And try to face the fear
“And yet, to times in hope, my verse shall stand,
ReplyDeletePraising thy worth, despite his cruel hand.”
Love your work, appeals to the sensitive in me -_- truly commendable.

ReplyDeletebut the words don't come in my mind very often, lol. anyways, thanks again. glad that you liked my work. =)
ReplyDeleteaww, now thats an honest confession. xD but im sure you'd make a great writer some fall day. =)i'll look forward to 'reading' from you soon.
ReplyDeletesuno, i was wondering; you'd find this interesting.

"Here's to the men that come with the dust and are gone with the wind..."
There are some, easy come-easy go, men that are a flash in the pan variety.
And then some "gung ho!" men that swear to dare but lack the wherewithal to follow through.
There are those "asshole creeps", that you wish you had known better than to-
There are the "constant bland" kind- that are too loving, too sweet, always there for you, yet ignite no sparks.
There are the wonderful "friends",with and without "benefits", but you know you'll never end up with them.
There are the spontaneous "flings", exciting, enjoyable, pleasant memories...
There are the "almost it" ones. You thought they were "it" but not quite.
There are the "perfect together" ones. Your friends/family/everyone thinks you are perfect for each other but somehow you miss seeing it.
Among others.... these are some of the men women encounter in their lives.
aw thanks, I hope so. :D
ReplyDelete@ your second post:
yeah, nice one. xD
lol.sweet, thankoo.. xD There is an air of anti-intimatic-emotions in some of your other work like Eternity, Tired of you,[stepping away] and... well i guess most of them xP *just out of curosity, is your work imaginative or from experience ^_^* do you work and all at a big creative-art firm Sadaf?
ReplyDeletesome of them are imaginative, some are from experience and some are from what I see around me, like circus and social life. lol no I don't work anywhere. =/
ReplyDeletep.s. I wrote something new today, 'lost'. check that out as well. thanks. xP
sweeeet; you're good for a rook/amateur xD. Do you study and all? Jiddah, KSA? cuz thats what i'm picking from the traffic-feed. xP keep writing, i wish you could read one of those to me; hey why don't you try putting up audio-versions of the odes alongwith the blog? that would be so great. xD anywhoo, keep writing; mashAllah. =)
ReplyDeleteI study in Pakistan, I'm here on my summer break. =) audio versions? umm naah, I think its better this way. xP
ReplyDeleteoh well, sounds like an arts program to me, Pakistan? and i thought i was pulling my arabic-socks ON xD im sure its great though. and lol@ audio versions, you totally bought that for-a-minute xD but imagine patriotic music playing in the background, cheesy youtube images, harmonies and classic verses being sung in a semi-melodious tone by a bunch-of-middle-aged-teenagers in an orchestra *Gosh, Im good*. xPP but sure 'its better this way' xD ; suno could i send you some of my work too for a critical-review since you're a pro-student plus i could totally send you a gulaab-ka-phool and the work as a thankyou+RSVP note when im rich-n-famous xD send me your email @ hasan.latif@hotmail.com.
ReplyDeletecritical review? =o but I'm not that good of a writer. =/
ReplyDeleteaww, how humbling, im sure you could. i mean like how does it sound to you, corrections if required and raw opinion formalized is adequate; but yea totally your call if you don't feel comfortable *_*
