"In the end, we are only humans, everyone fighting their own war  some with others, some with themselves.. everyone has a reason for betrayal. its a selfish world."

Story untold
Shariq Jawed Nov 2018
Did you hear about the story untold?
Where naive goes out and gets sold...

Did you hear about those hopeless men?
Counting the numbers down from ten...

Did you see that cheater deceiving others?
Going around screweing over his own brothers...

Did you see that guy walking heart broken?
All his pain and sorrows left unspoken...

Do you know the harsh reality of this world?
No one wants to change, but wants you to mould...

Stranger
Shariq Jawed Nov 2018
One late evening, you slipped into life like a miracle,
Hoping and expecting a lot, was just being cynical...

You entered, you captured with that adorable smile,
Making me believe, for you I would walk any mile...

Started as strangers, easing into something more,
Someone who might finally take me to the shore...

But...

High hopes came crashing, walls came crumbling,
My cries getting painful, my screams so deafening...

Bailing out on me like every other before you,
Losing all the faith in you, alas only if I knew...

Like my heart wants you, wishing you could want me,
Realization of abandonment, the curse which haunts me...

Bearing this merciless agony, I don't have any anger,
You pushed me back to the status of a stranger...

Realization
Shariq Jawed Nov 2018
The clouds of uncertainty hover on my head,
Realisation of the truth edging towards me..

Life has been nothing, but long and painful,
The showers of uncertainty everywhere I see..

A cry for peace, a scream for help,
Every passer-by, ignoring my plea..

Why does it hurt being so lost,
Life being nothing but a hazardous sea..

Isn't there anyone hearing my pain,
Anyone at all, be it a he or a she..

It's nothing but a big ol' selfish world,
Realisation of the truth edging towards me..

Nostalgia...
Shariq Jawed Nov 2018
Abandonment has made him looking for clues,
Fear to love and lose evolved into Pistanthrophobia...

The numbness and hollowness he felt in his aching heart,
Feeling like a dead corpse, going through analgia...

Facing his share of heartbreaks, been easily replaced,
His heart wishes nothing but to suffer from amnesia...

He now sits in the dark corner, battling his inner demons,
Thinking of the spent moments, going through nostalgia...

I & U
Shariq Jawed Nov 2018
I
Tried
To be
Perfect
For you...

You
Rejected
The concept
Of perfection
For me...

I
Gave
All that
I had inside
To you...

You
Ignored
And returned
Just emptiness
To me...

I
Slept
Weeping
And thinking
Of you...

You
Stood
Wide awake
Wanting nothing
Of me...

The Morning Dew
Shariq Jawed Nov 2018
Waking up to sunrise so beautiful,
Sad to see that it is only witnessed by a few...

Looked at her with sleepy eyes,
Witnessed the beauty that no one knew...

Wishing to always see her smile,
Wishing that together older we Grew...

Her presence makes it all colorful,
Without her, nothing but blue...

Takes a long whiff letting the air fill my lungs,
Relaxes my head back, enjoying the view...

The smell of freshly brewed coffee,
The smell of the morning dew...

— The End —
