Cold Desert

My favourite one that I've written

In this majestic scene

Under the black sun

I can only search for this angel

Who watches over me

I would run and run forever

And discover the five horizons

Revolved around her soul

Once she leaves this earth

I will find my way home

And out of this desert


She comes back to me in a dream

And repeats words that heal

My past of nightmares

"Just Breathe"

FYI: The desert can be very cold, cold enough to kill.
Your poem captures the bleakness, followed by the gift of warmth to save us.
