She walks into my room, Across the endless sand of these dunes I lay waiting on my comfy bed. Sinking into the fine warmth. I hide from the only light in the room, Under the shade of another dune. She approaches and falls into my arms. Slowly being buried in desert. I run my hand through her hair Then pull my fingers out of the sand Her hair flips and twirls down While the sand pours out of my palm She glows in the light of the falling sun The fibers of the light bulb failing. She slowly gets up and leaves. The wind blowing her sand off of me Just as the sun reaches its set, Her distant silhouette blows a kiss As the glass smothers the spark, These dunes hold my last breath. I crumble into sleep.

A Desert's Dream
She walks into my room, Across the endless sand of these dunes I lay waiting on my comfy bed. Sinking into the fine warmth. I hide from the only light in the room, Under the shade of another dune. She approaches and falls into my arms. Slowly being buried in desert. I run my hand through her hair Then pull my fingers out of the sand Her hair flips and twirls down While the sand pours out of my palm She glows in the light of the falling sun The fibers of the light bulb failing. She slowly gets up and leaves. The wind blowing her sand off of me Just as the sun reaches its set, Her distant silhouette blows a kiss As the glass smothers the spark, These dunes hold my last breath. I crumble into sleep.
