the wind wails sometimes the wind whispers
footprints are filled in and disappear
over dunes that over time move
seeing a vision that shimmers away to my own derision
~
I'm not at the beach though there are waves
nor at the floor of the ocean thought the pressure oppresses me
I wish there was water to taste
water escapes from my face
~
Walking despite being lost cause stopping means all hope is lost
the way back has been hidden
eyes trick the mind's intuition
of distance crossed and routes our foots stomped
~
despite being far-fetched if I'm in it then its fair I guess
I do it because to you it is due
so despite the dunes and dry places
I cross this desert to you my destination
