A Road Without You Poem by Muhammad Hesham

A Road Without You

Rating: 5.0


Other passers-by
come,
from where we used to come,
and go into the night.

The night
merges two shadows into one
and my shadow is lonely
dispersed by the light.

The light
disturbs lusts in the eyes
and leaves my eyes victims
to this tumult.

The tumult
hinders the primitive dialogue
between the murk and a torrent of desires
and between the road and footfalls.

What has led my steps
to look for
our scattered steps
on a road without you?


(Translated from Arabic by the author)
