i spend a lot of time
searching for affection
in shallow spaces
i gave people bits of me
they didn't deserve
and i let myself be hurt,
because i thought
that's what i deserved
but once i let go
of trying to shove puzzle pieces
in places that did not fit,
once i let go of all the hate
i secretly had stored in the
gashes that decorate my heart
i met you
----------------------------------------------“Most love stories are about people who fall in love with each other.
But what about the rest of us?
What about our stories, those of us who fall in love alone?
We are the victims of the one sided affair.
We are the cursed of the loved ones.
We are the unloved ones, the walking wounded.
The handicapped without the advantage of a great parking space!
Yes, you are looking at one such individual"
- Kat Winslet, The Holiday
Assalamualaikum Silent reader(s) ;-)
Never despair whenever this kind of 'tragedy' (exaggeration I know) befalls you.
You are not alone.
I sometimes wonder, whenever Im alone, I think of these kind of things yknow,
and sometimes when I see my friends who already have their own significant other,
at one moment I feel so.... left out.
( I hope I didn't sound too pathetic :P )
On second thought, I don't think I am ready to be involved with feelings again atm!
Ive learnt my lesson and I prefer to play a slow game.. and let things fall slowly, hehe.
The most important thing to me right now is....... my studies. And I don't want to be
distracted. For now. At least.
Anyways.. whenever something like this happens, set in your mind that God made us in pairs
and it is only a matter of time, we will meet our own half! Insha Allah. ;-)
As the great Yasmin Mogahed said:
“Some feel lonely because they haven’t found that perfect
‘companion’ yet. Sometimes Allah sends everyone else away so you can find that only in Him.”
and she also said:
“If you want the love of the people, stop running after it. The more you chase it, the more it escapes you.
Love doesn’t come from the people. It comes from God.”
In conclusion, make Him your top priority, and you will never be last ;-)
When the time comes, when our Imaan is already enough,
the path that we've been on will cross with someone who has been written for us.
He is the best of all planners and His timing is never off.
One of my friends once said, "Save your precious heart to someone who deserves it!"
So guys, save your precious heart, keep it locked inside, learn not to get too attached
to someone (even though it will be quite tough), only the person with the right 'key'
deserve it! ;-)
'what comes easy wont last, what lasts wont come easy'
p.s: Don't expect too much.... because expectations leads to disappointment..
My advise: Handle your feelings carefully ;-)
