Desert of Despair

Sand beneath my feet
Sun's unyielding heat
Miles of endless dunes
Beneath the burning moons
Parched lips whisper cries
Under scorching skies
Shadows long and thin
Desperation setting in

Lost in the desert wide
No water nowhere to hide
Fading with each breath
Marching towards slow death

Mirages taunt my mind
No salvation I can find
Echoes of the past
Moments that won't last
Skin cracked and dry
Gazing at the sky
Hope slips through my hands
Buried in these sands

Lost in the desert wide
No water nowhere to hide
Fading with each breath
Marching towards slow death

Night falls cold and stark
Eyes losing their spark
Stars whisper tales of woe
In this land I go slow
Footsteps fade away
In the dunes I sway
Silence takes its hold
In the night so cold

Desert winds will sing
Of a life left to cling
In the silence I depart
With an empty heart

Lost in the desert wide
No water nowhere to hide
Fading with each breath
Marching towards slow death
