Just Leave Me

By Mobarak Saed

My soul dies
the death
of infected love
See me pacing behind
shadows
dogging lamps.
I wake up and the sun
is blurred by a
haze.
I am broken.
Abandoned
bones and cartilage.
Paralyzed
by signals
sight becomes pale.
I turn and you nurse my neck
with nakedness
Be gone!
allow me to die slowly
free of your lot.
