When I Close My Eyes

As I walk through this desolate wasteland, I am searching.

Never has it been clearer that I must find you, before it’s too late.

Where have you gone?

I close my eyes and I see your glow, blinding my vision.

Beautiful, although uneasy I am left.

So on I push, through the loneliness that I am surrounded by.

The darkness has entangled my arms, invaded my mind.

I plead for serenity, longing to see your glow amongst the desert.

Where was it, that dark place I lost myself in?

It is familiar, as if I never left, as if I’m still there.
