Yet another serious heart-break,
Yet another unexpected blow,
Yet another discrete proof of,
Peoples fake and outward show!
Ready to help us all the time,
Support theyre willing to offer,
But when the time comes to ask,
Their words and actions differ!
Expectations are built and broken,
It happens again, and yet again,
One feels dejected and ditched,
Friendships are lost without gain!
Words of hope echo in your mind,
Their false claims give you tears,
But you, O human, do not stop,
To turn to the “Only” whos near!
Nothing to lose when you love Allah,
His pleasure wins you all gain,
Benefits in this world and the next
Happiness and rewards, no pain!
Yet we humans fail to be believers,
We find it difficult to rely on Him,
Shaitaan wins the battle with us,
Chances of not being doomed are slim,
We know all this yet from people,
Our needs of love, we associate,
We get hurt but we keep trying,
To fool ourselves till we dissipate,
Then we gather our shattered self,
We bow down to Him in depression,
We renew our faith, and we pledge,
Well only yearn for His attention,
A few days pass by until we stick,
To the new promise and resolve,
However,Shaitaan doesnt cease,
We give in to his tricks, we absolve!
Our mind tries to hold us back but,
Our heart craves for love and care,
Self-deceived and misguided again,
We turn to the creation in despair!
Knowingly we treat ourself unkind,
We get involved in people again,
Expecting from others rather than Him,
Utterly dismayed, we shout in pain…
“Yet another serious heart-break,
Yet another unexpected blow,
Yet another discrete proof of,
Peoples fake and outward show!”

September 12, 2014 6:18 amJazakumullahu khairan katheeran all of you for your love and encouragement. Indeed all khair is from Allah swt alone. Let’s try and get closer to Allah and just associate all our expectations from Him alone, to avoid any heartbreaks in this world and the next. If this poem can help transform the attitude and change the perception of even one individual,the purpose of my poem will be fulfilled; In Shaa Allah, Bi idhn Allah! Assalam o Alaikum wa Rehmatullah wa Barakatuhu 🙂

October 4, 2014 6:22 pmRead the Poem quite a few times now…yeah i am a poor reader…takes long to understand 🙂
It’s something that I guess every individual experiences,even i do.
Very well written and presented.
Thoughts coming to my mind are ..
Life is beautiful and as read somewhere,Life is a series of experiences.
At this point i believe, One must keep hopes and expectations open,thus Charm & uncertainty (including about actions & reactions of other people) makes lively experiences.
One may expect less but should surely do !
However Bad Heartbreak it was,sooner or later one finds solace with Almighty…it gives back confidence to take my chances again.
Wonderful reading it !
