Nothing Left Poem by Issam Aladdin

Nothing left to subtract, now hes walking on his own
there are voices whispering, hear the winding howl
there's nothing left intact, they've taken his heart
ripped his soul, the present is beating hard.

There's a coldness in the air, hes contemplating the knife
the words come to his mind, he cant bear with life
his lips move faintly, 'the futures too far away'
empty steps walking with a short delay.

Paused life for a moment, thoughts knocking in
he has no place to call home, no love to sleep with
he wants clouds as wings, faith as love
but hes got none, shes now gone.

Never divided, now far apart
there she is in heaven, watching his dawn
'i know someday you'll have a beautiful life'
she thinks, while the sky cant bear his cries.

He lighted her candles, amidst the cemetery
she gave him paradise, a love always steady
she was tattooed to his heart, now he has a bitter half
there's nothing inside but reason gone mad.
