roaming through the desert of a foreign land
blood on my hands
armor made from the pieces of sand
bleeding out
unable to shout
there are no echos
or other lifeforms to hear my pleas
dying of thirst
i drop to knees
until behold
a shadowy figure looms over me
holding a canteen
smiling ferociously
unable to speak
desperation fills my eyes
eyes dried up not able to cry
no empathy
a statue of apathy
with a slow stare
you vanish right past me
