each step closer cracked the earth
dry, dusty breaths burned my lips
hot air seared my lungs
i can’t make it
i won’t
his eyes a deep, refreshing pool
cool breezes flowing out of reach
his smile beckoned like a rainbow
i can’t make it
i won’t
the sky is fire raining sparks
only he can quench my thirst
smoke pours from my mouth as i call to him
i can’t make it
i won’t
rain falls from his lips
my name a clap of thunder
his love a dark cloud
i can’t make it
i won’t
the cracked soil fills with water
mud rushed to my knees
skin sizzles in the flood
i can’t make it
i won’t
his eyes darken to mud
his arms raise the winds
his smile falters to lightening
water up to my neck
i lose sight of my oasis
i drown dying of thirst
i can’t
