Malak Elhadad Poem
Every day when I wake up in the morning
I promise myself that today will be different and I’ll change
So that I’ll be able to finally sleep without my head hurting
From replaying these lucid agonizing moments relentlessly
When all I could do is please, support and trust people
While they are constantly stepping on me to move forward
And I just can’t say no to them, it took me a while to realize
That when you let people take advantage of you, they’ll never stop
I’m always deceived by the typical two-faced people
Prioritizing their feelings and their impression about me
While neglecting myself, feeling bad and the urge to be kinder
But at the end of the day, I’m the one who keeps losing to people who didn’t even try.

Malak Elhadad Poem
Just how much courage does it take?
To stick to the plan that I’d made
And why should I be afraid?
To live my own destined fate
When all I could do is hate
All the things that I have said
Can’t I just stay in the bed?
With no sorrows and no regret
But the image of it in my head
Keeps on replaying until the end

Malak Elhadad Poem
You said you hated liars
But you’ve always lied to me
You despised being deceived and used
How ironic, you’ve done worse
Telling me I could open up to you
Then twisting my words against me
Giving me all the hard work
And taking all the credit as the “leader”
Now, that your truth is crystal clear
I won’t stay silent, not this time.

Malak Elhadad Poem
I hate how it always ends up like that.
How I get ignored for several hours.
And reply within a few seconds.
To think that you didn’t care as much as I do.
Engraves a sense of solitude in my heart.
I can’t call myself anything but a fool.
To hopelessly stare blankly at a screen.
How can I have these emotions, however?
Every day I greet you like it’s never the last time.
Reminiscing, overthinking but never hating you.
Ever wondered if you noticed those emotions………………? (will you ever do?)

Malak Elhadad Poem
Never have I ever imagined such a warm feeling That day, when all my hope seemed to crumble You felt my frustration and sorrows without me trying And you were there to console me, to give me a hug
Suddenly I felt warm tears on my cheeks that I couldn’t hold back But I don’t think that I can call that feeling sadness Not when I felt your presence next to me And not when you were braiding my hair gently I think that I was reassured and I felt…………………Solace?

Malak Elhadad Poem
And I wondered how can it be felt that effortlessly The feeling of not being left out, when that one leaves Only then you remember my existence and that I’m here Seasons went by and you’ve travelled the world with that one in mind Yet I’m still stuck here waiting for you but you never came
It wasn’t about being busy as you said, I just wasn’t the priority That feeling of uneasiness in my chest that I get when I realize I didn’t mean as much as you did for me When I’m included only when others aren’t available
It feels like there’s a void in my heart surrounded by endless solitude But can it be filled when I’m no longer the backup friend, your “Plan B”?....

Malak Elhadad Poem
I’ve been hurt by the people
Who were supposed to treat me right
Telling me I’m getting better
But still will never be enough
They pretend care is control, and call it love
No matter how good I try to be
There’ll be something else to fix
Every compliment has a hidden knife behind it
I know who I am and what I’m worth well
They have so much to say about me
And I get confused and lost in it
That I started mistaking love for survival
Now I know survival isn’t all I am

Malak Elhadad Poem
It’s alright
You can ghost her for many hours And she’ll still reply within seconds
It’s alright
To expect her to understand lame excuses But never give her any of that understanding
It’s alright
You can take her presence for granted But make it obvious you’ll leave at any moment
It’s alright
To treat your best friend like she’s nothing She’ll find a way to apologize and beg you to stay anyway

Malak Elhadad Poem
It’s not alright
I waited for many hours all the time And I am the one who is dry and changed?
It’s not alright
To expect me to be understanding But won’t even try to understand and care for me
It’s not alright
To tell me things I would misunderstand When you know that I’m paranoid
It’s not alright
You knew that I was hurting most But still decided to be a part of my agony

Malak Elhadad Poem
I walked into the same room
and became someone I thought I left
The chaos that destroyed my peace
Is now the radio silence I’ve dreamed of
The walls that heard me cry at night
Hear nothing but laughing sounds now
The hurt that I felt deeply in my body
Is just a bad memory that triggers me
The loneliness covered by the noise
Became louder than the huge thunder
The comfort that promised to always be there
Is nowhere to be seen in sight
Things are better now… so why
Why do I still feel like I’m back there?
