Deserted

The desert land

Stretches on like an endless sea

A vast chasm of nothingness and emptiness

And all that exists

Is the hot sanded wind

 

Crouched down in a ball

Loneliness is the only companion

To the desolation that has become life

 

Peering at the setting sun

Knowing the terrors of the night to come

The knife holding promises of peace

And it beckons for the warm flesh of serenity

And the blood of tranquility
