desert
in a radiant bright shining sun
a brilliant consuming star
by all things seen come undone
revealed relentlessly close and afar
.
in its light i cannot stand
blinded and burned, a sharp pain
as if in a desert drowning in a sea of sand
i’m covered in stains
of sweat blood and tears
wishing that for the relief
that comes with end of day
.
but day never ends
a constant ever shining sun
all darkness withers in its presence
and hides in shadows it shuns
.
that leaves me no choice
but to keep treking on
to search for relief anew
or only sand to return
