7:34 AM and I still love you
Last June, I loved you
Five years later, I'll still love you
& that my dear, is my problem

Love II
Wedyan AlMadani Sep 2015
Love is that fine line
between heaven and hell,
took me to heaven
and now it keeps
dragging me down to hell.

Ghosts of 3 AM
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
No matter how my day goes, I find myself ending up here.
It's past midnight and I'm sleepless like every other night.
No matter where I go, I find myself looking for you in every word and every sad song.
It's terrifying, how you managed to consume every single thought in my mind and made it all about you.
No matter how hard I try, I find myself running through the old scars you've left on me.
It's 3 AM and all I think of is the way you used to run your fingers through my hair, the way you took my breath away each time you looked at me and how you were both my heaven and hell.
No matter where I leave to, I find myself back at the same place you've left me and with the same ghosts that haunt me.

Bukowski
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
He yelled sober thoughts when he drank.
Inked honest words when he wrote.
And if I had one wish,
I'd bring Bukowski back!

Be Selfish
Wedyan AlMadani Nov 2014
Love yourself,
cherish your self-worth,
& most importantly
forgive.
Forgive for yourself
& not for anyone else,
because nothing
will haunt your existence
like the memory
of a wound that didn't mend.

Those nights
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
I wanna live for those nights we won't remember
with those people we won't forget
with the love we won't regret
with that pain we won't have
I wanna live for those nights
we will never rejoice

Blame
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
Look into her eyes
and tell me what you see?
look through her soul
is that pain you see?

Now,
look at her face
is that a smile you don't see?
is it gone?
where to?
don't you know?

Tell me,
don't you remember?
the sleepless nights
the day terrors
don't you remember?
the pain you caused
the love you destroyed
don't you remember?
how you left without a word
how you deserted her with no goodbyes

Now tell me,
who should we blame it on?
her?
should we blame it on her for loving you?
or
you?
for playing her?
or
should we,
should we blame it on love and life?
they both wreck us in the end don't they?
Writer's block is a *****.
Message me for any ideas.

Denial
Wedyan AlMadani Mar 2013
Here comes the sun
and she's in your arms
and my denial keeps me on the edge of the chance
that I'll have you some other night

Eternal madness
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
Notify my heart
Let it trend with feelings
Make me follow you into the darkness
And build me a home of eternal madness
It's 4 AM and I couldn't think of something better..

The Devil's hour
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
It's 3:00 AM

Maybe,
I should've

Falling (Shuffle Prompt)
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
I always find myself,
falling back into your arms
No matter how far,
I ride away from you
I'll always find myself,
back on you
Breathless is how,
you leave me every time
The Angels look down to us,
each time we shine
I totally loved somethingweknewwasours's idea!

THE SHUFFLE PROMPT IS MY FAVOURITE OF ALL TIME. You grab your iPod (or iPhone, or MP3 player, or Pandora or whatever you keep your music on) and the first 5 songs that play on shuffle, you integrate into your poem.

The five songs were, Falling by Florence + The Machine - Ride by Lana Del Rey - I'm on you by Dj Antoine - Breathless by Shayne Ward - Angels by The **.

she never fought it
she embraced it

I don't miss you
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
When I tell you that I miss you, you should know that I'm lying. I don't miss you, I miss the shivers I used to get every time you touched me I miss the way you used to hold my hand and play with my hair but I don't miss you. I miss your drunken calls at 3 AM in the morning telling me that you've had it with the life and me I miss how I drove you out of you mind and back to your senses every time I'd gaze into your eyes. I miss how you would drop everything every time I asked you to come over I miss how you made your whole world revolve around me but I don't miss you. I miss the late nights of ***** and cigarettes by the beach and how we used lay there just like little children so innocently till the sun rises. I miss the feeling you used to give me I miss how you made my heart beat out of my chest I miss every single little detail of what we had but hell, I don't miss you.

In my dreams
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
In my dreams, I find you near.
I find you close to me.
Closer,
than you've ever been.

In my dreams, you never leave.
You stay here with me.
Stay,
till the sun shines bright.

In my dreams, we own the night.
We shine in this darkness.
Shine,
for me you're my light.

In my dreams,
There's no one but you & me.

The one
Wedyan AlMadani Sep 2016
When you try to find the one
You end up with nothing but pain
and absolute agony with a hint of despair
You end up trying to change yourself for
someone you're not sure exists
You try and try and try
To be perfect, the perfect match
The perfect piece to that glorious pair
You try, but somehow you find yourself
failing, falling in misery and an anguish
you cannot bear

She
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
She
Green eyes
Olive skin
She was your beauty queen
Five feet tall
Black hair so long
She was your dazzling dream
You loved her
She loved him
You wanted her
I wanted you
She broke you
and broke me too
You left
and took my heart with you
She went
and had her fairy tale with him
I am here
and all I have is vivid dreams of you

Hurt
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
What should hurt me more?
You loving her?
Or
Me wanting you?
Or
Me waiting for something that can never exist?

Two bottles
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
Can someone please explain,
why do we mix pleasure with pain?
why do we love having Jack with *******?
why do we always crave taking it in the vein?

Oh please, do explain
why is this world so vain?
why run around in this so-called lane?
why can't we wash up all our sins and guilts in rain?

Now do tell me,
what it takes to be insane
please don't tell me,
that it takes two bottles of champagne
Title was chosen by Brycical.

Great Things

Great things
always end
in catastrophe.
Like the war

You were the greatest thing I destroyed.

Blue like the sea
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
Blue,
like the sea.
In your eyes,
I see
mesmerizing pulchritude.
I gaze into them
& stray in a world
of unsaid words.
Pain,
hidden behind a beauty
so dazzling.
Pain,
only I can see.
Pain,
I want to heal.
Pain,
in the most beautiful eyes
I've ever seen.

I fell for wine
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
My first love was crazy made me smile like a fool of a lady,
just like ***** but the memories are quite hazy.
His love might not die but I will never forget every lie.

After that I fell for a guy who reminded me of Patrick Swayze,
we danced all night and just like whiskey he left me lazy.
His love was divine but his wife waited for him every time.

Last but not least I found a man who taught me how to fall,
in liquor instead of love he showed me how to conquer  all.
We laughed and cried and with wine we tried to live life like a ball.
P.S. I think I might be a little bit crazy.
754 · Mar 2013
You're not the one
Wedyan AlMadani Mar 2013
No, you're not the one who completes my sentences nor the one who reads my mind.
You're never there when I need you the most and you never listen to the words I say.
You're loud and obnoxious, but your noises are much like music to my ears.
You're not the one I would die for, but you're the one I want spend the rest of my life with.
You're not the one who would fight for me, but you're the one I would fight for with every bit of my restless soul.
You're not the one who completes me, but you're the one who makes me feel whole.
You're the one I would tell my darkest secrets and worst stories to.
You're the one I would want to have next to me in this unknown journey of life.
You're not the one, but you're everything I've ever wanted.
You're the one I want.
You're the one I need.
You were always the one, but you never noticed, you never knew.
My scattered thoughts, scattered me.

My guilty pleasure
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
Of all my pleasures
you were the one
I craved,
wanted
and more I needed  

you were the one
who got me weak,
on my knees
that made me plead

you were the one
I cannot give up,
cannot leave
and without I cannot believe

you were the one
I fiend,
whom I did not defeat
what a guilty pleasure indeed
750 · Mar 2014
I don't need you
Wedyan AlMadani Mar 2014
I don't need a hero
In this story I will be
My own savior and you
Won't be my conqueror
I don't need to be saved
I need to be left in my solitude
With my thoughts & perceptions
I don't need you
I need me

Gone
Wedyan AlMadani May 2013
You stumble along the road
And suddenly feel so lost
People are not same no more
Faces ain't so familiar anymore
Memories faded to the floor
And you,
Your mind and soul
With the wind
Are gone

Inspire me
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
I need to be inspired.
So why don't you come over,
and make me feel desired?
Come a little closer,
I'll make you feel admired.
Make me your lover,
before what we have is expired.

Change
Wedyan AlMadani Mar 2013
Circumstances, time and people
they change
Feelings will fade
Love will stray  
Everything is ruled by change, but you
you're here stuck with a broken
clock, no more tick tock
a broken heart that
won't beat no more
and a broken soul that haunts
you till your sanity is no longer whole.

Memories
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
Sleep deprived remembering
Our late nights laying by the pool
Smoking cigarettes like it was cool
And jamming to songs that are so old school
Oh dear, I was such a ******* fool
710 · Jan 2013
I see in you
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
I look at you and see everything I've ever been
everything I've hated in myself and loved in you
everything I wanted to change and everything
that made me fall deeply and recklessly for you
fall for how imperfectly perfect you really are
lost and confused not knowing where to go in life
I see the pain hidden behind that breathtaking smile
the agony of being alone with the people you love
the agony of having no where and no one to belong to
no one to relate to, no one who could understand this
madness, fury and rage that makes you want to leave
just let go and leave it all behind and start over
somewhere new with someone new but it's sad
that you can't ******* pack up, just leave and let it go
the people you loved the places you've known
the pain that's stuck on your heart and soul
I look at you and see myself through those eyes
see my pain my anger and my hidden flaws
I see you and see in you everything that I've ever been

2013
Wedyan AlMadani Dec 2012
2012 taught us to be strong
In 2012
We fell,
stumbled
and made mistakes
In 2012
We went wrong,
forgave
and forgot  
In 2012
Things changed,
We went through pain
And we survived it all
In 2012
We fell in love,
got hurt
and had broken hearts
In 2012
The masks fell,
True friends stayed
And the fake ones left
In 2012
We went crazy,
almost lost it all
and got back on track
In 2012
We outgrew ourselves,
our mistakes
and our reality
In 2012
We learned that true happiness doesn't need a penny,
love don't cost a thing
and peace is what we truly need
2012 was supposed to be the end but it was only the beginning  
Farewell to an unforgettable year
And hello to a year that we'll make the best of
Happy 2013 everyone

Late nights
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
2:00 AM in the morning thinking
of you and what you might be doing
remembering the way you stare at me
and smile remembering the way you
mistakenly touch my hand and look
away the way you play with my hair
teasing me coming so close but you
end up leaving me yearning for your
love but you're never pleasing me

2:15 I stand and stare at the mirror
I look at myself and try to reconsider
every step I took trying to get near
every move I did to make it so clear
that all I want is you but I hide the fear
of losing a friend and a potential lover
all this pain I have I just need to cover  
but every time I try all I get is an ERROR

2:30 I take out an ice blue ****
**** it I tried to be **** strong
but everything I do turns out wrong
and I know this pain will take too long
to fade away so I keep singing this song
I keep singing this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sX9DgavXiN4

I once bumped into an old friend
we sat there and talked about how life
drove us into madness and left us with pain
I asked him furiously, why don't we get
the joy instead of pain and the vain?
the pleasure and euphoria of *******?
the endless love of being absolutely insane?
my friend looked at me and laughed
hysterically, I recall then said to me
my dearest, we're ******* writers
we don't get the joy nor the pleasure
in our existence we get that in our
words, poems and prose but in reality
we can only dream of that never ending phase
686 · Mar 2014
Love
Wedyan AlMadani Mar 2014
I look into your eyes and see an immense love
A love I can't take anymore
A love that breaks my heart in bones
A love that is not right for me
A love I do not deserve
And a love,
a love that can fill the valleys with flowing rain

choking on my own

is taken by the beauty
of your eyes

who takes my breath away

Would you perhaps give me the honor of,

Forever wanna-be yours
This is the cheesiest thing I've ever written, but I had to get it off my chest!

Friends?
Wedyan AlMadani Jan 2013
You see the thing is
I don't wanna spend everynight remeniscing about the way you used to look into my eyes,
regretting every single moment we had under the shining stars
and tearing myself apart for a memory that strayed in the dark.
Your laugh that brings endless joy to every bit of my broken soul,
that smile that drives my wrecked heart insanely wild
and the way you stare right through my heart seeing it beat right out of my chest, beating with love
Your love,
Our love,
The love we've never shared but somehow had,
Never expressed but felt every time you mistakenly touch my hand.
