Nothing Poem by Naila Ali

I let my emotions take me afar,
sometimes I cannot handle it all.

The cries of hurt make my heart soft,
For it lets me know that I'm not alone.

As days go by, I feel more & more.
But I will never let my weakness show.

Tears drip down, down below.
But no, I will never let it all blow.

I have to pretend, I have to move on,
think that it never happened at all.

I sometimes wander over the thought,
of being nobody, nothing at all..
