Alone Again: A Poem
Alone Again: A Poem
Alone
I am
without someone
I could call mine
I could call anytime
I could call to lit up a smile
let alone someone to embrace with pride
Alone
I am
not having anyone
to share my lows and highs
to share my miseries inside
to share all my woes when I cry
let alone a shoulder when I bawl out my eyes
Alone
I am
no one for me
to care and be cared by
to caress on cold nights
to console me when deep down, I die
let alone someone to wish me ‘Sleep Tight’
Alone
I am
nobody
to make me feel fine
to make me laugh and sigh
to make me feel warm at sunshine
let alone make me feel wanted, forever in time
Alone
I am
Unmasking
the real me,
hoping for things to go my way
yet, gazing lonelily outside the window
the real me,
yearning for someone to knock on my door
waiting for somebody to be my saviour
the real me,
falling, evanescently , indefinitely in self-pity
disappearing to oblivion, slowly, but definitely
the real me,
desperately, agonizingly, sorrowfully,
attempting to unearth my loneliness
trying to unwound painful scars
struggling to expose my broken heart
for me to reach out to whoever you may be
‘Why haven’t you come to save me?’
Alone
I am alone
with no one
but my empty self,
with no one
but a shadow of my own,
with no one
but my reflection on the mirror

I hasn’t read your poem, but yet i can expect it to be errr…. boring hahahaha… i am your demotivating factor right? Kuang-kuang… But hey Ali, i hope i am being sincere with this… Typical tazkirah starter… “I am to remind myself and you all of all the sins that we’ve made.” Okay.. listen, all the problems are life’s test… an obstacle. It comes from Him, and thus to HIM you should refer your problems to. Yeah you can go to see a councellor, teacher, parents, gewe, cat, dog etc. That’s the ikthtiar. You should do that, but whatever you do it all will come back to Allah- Iyyakana’buduwaiyyakanasta’im…
Okay, maybe you’ll say this: Man, I know all this, i’ve heard this aeons ago… it’s not the matter of hearing it. I also heard this aeons ago, but even me myself keep repeating the sins. It’s the matter of understanding and confidence and thus Iman and Fear to God-Taqwa, the very standardized benchmark for one’s success both on this world and life hereafter. Now let us both, understand the very meaning of takwa. Let us pray… I am also reminding myself that Allah still spare us three more days of Ramadhan. Let us utilize this barakah month with Qiamullail. Wallahuallam…
Kewek the naive but idealistic classrep!!!!

And yeah, you are not alone, never… LA Tahzan, Innallahama’ana… “Don’t be sad, Allah is with us”

dat’s sad…
but i dont think it’s 100% true ^_^
i agree wif anas, ur never alone
“when 1 door of happiness closes, another door opens…
but often we look too long at the closed door…
that we do not see the one which has opened…”
make the most out of life ok?
dont forget to open ur eyes wide…
