Leave Me Nothing More Poem by Sakshi Walia

The air seems to be so pure
Yet i find myself breathless.
All alone in a dark room torn apart,
Loneliness has broken me down
And left me to scatter.
Like cracks in a sidewalk
I suffer scratches in my heart
Trying to hide all my pain
I drift into the dull grey.
My life working into exhaustion,
transforming every inch of it into a turmoil.
My Screaming and scorching soul
Collapsing in front of my own.
Energy stooped so low,
Thoughts gone astray
Passion slowly starting to fade,
My world lost in obscure sights.
Still i gathered myself all over again
Preparing for one last fight
Only to taste the flavor of failures.
What's the point?
Why did i try?
Where would i find composure?
I'm loosing my own
Hurricanes and tornadoes tearing me,
Hollow rustling of whirlwinds stealing my tranquility.
Look, how am i trapped within me.
Haven't spoken, Haven't been heard
Murmuring in despair,
I've been shattered to the end
That there's nothing left inside of me.
They took it all away,
Drowning me in somber
Snatching the hush within me
I'm left with distress and sorrows
They took it all away
Nagging me into desolation
I'm left with a forever grim and nothing more,
They did leave me nothing more.
