Unrequited Love

​

A proposition was made to me to change my journey A competition between my mind and heart, like a tourney It was time to find her somewhere down my dark roadI had strength, for all I needed was a map to decode I prayed to the most high, for this path was dark and coldAt the end of path was the light and soon the scoldAs I took my first step in to the light of love with hesitation She stood there and in her eyes I could see the frustration Still her beauty could not be described by words I was even deaf to the beautiful sounds of the birds For my love for her was for all eternity Love, all I wanted was her companyI swear the light of love struck me like a lighteningI lay there with no hopes of her in sight of me Why me? Why me? As I crawl to beg for her forgiveness But Allah is the most forgiving for that I was a witness But why she denied my love was my questionBecause I felt weak and hopeless near depressionAn unloved man is in one whose eyes you can see the desperation The feeling that maybe I was condemned to eternal isolation They say the bad end with the bad would this be my reality?To be ignorant is to be a fool it had to be my hypocrisy Was I supposed to give up on my one and only love? The choice was not mine, it was made from aboveI knew the hate in my heart, the darkness in my soul, was the reason for her unrequited love. May Allah shine light on the ones with darkness in their souls.(Amin Ya Rabi)
