Deserted RevelationA Poem by The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE) A
distant echo cried Over
a strange desert plain; Lost
in the nothing, Like
forgotten dreams. My
soul felt like The
infinite night sky; My
heart the stars, Seen after long burned out. Walking
down memory lane Towards
the hypnotic wailing In
my own shoes That
don’t seem to fit I
knew I must recognize the signs, For
this journey couldn’t be retraced Cause
the breadcrumbs I left Sank
deep in the mud. Taking
in the sight of the lush greenery, Enjoying
the mist of the cool crisp air Tantalize
my pores, refreshing my imagination I
walked the nurturing road Knowing
soon I will risk turning to dust Trudging
a barren land in search of why My
vocals chose to roam alone. Days
of sun baked searching Produced
a question as parched As
my aching body becoming one With
the unforgiving terrain. Then
with one big swallow of sand I
finally realized the truth… If
my voice doesn’t seek Then
I shall never find. Suddenly
becoming dust in the wind Was
a hopeful destiny.
