The Desert

 

Here I am

Alone in this vast land

Its cold, it is dark

Far away from the presence of man

 

The world goes on around me

As I stay here inside my head

It is my escape,

without it I’d be dead

 

My world is twisted

The trees are bloody and dying

The cracked ground cries

And the wind is sighing

 

Time seems to stop

As I contemplate the truth

Every step I take

Gives me another clue

 

I walk alone

The miles that seem to go no where

And from ahead in the distance

I look into the sun and stare

 

For a glimmer of hope

A sign of another life

But I see nothing and I wander this desert

While reality passes me by

I put myself in your shoes, not in your head, I don't want to escape in your nightmare. I love it, so smooth is the walk. Intense with emotions and visual. If you find the time take a walk in to my little world of "Escape"
Thank you for sharing, I enjoyed it. God Bless.
