Desert Storm

Desert storms within my heart I never knew such a turbulent start Over the sand the winds blow fierce Piercing my skin like sharpen spears Melted glass runs down my cheeks My mouth feels dry, my body week From this terrain so hot and vast Blasting through my pain at last The crystal sun shining bright My minds sharp like frozen light It could be a mirage right ahead Well of water but my eyes feel led Over the dunes up and down This never ending landscape of ground The sweat just pouring down my body This swirling sand makes my goggles foggy As last the storm seems to pass My heart so heavy just like brass I stumble and fall like death at last Smashing to pieces like broken glass © Copyright 8th January 2014 K.C.Leake All Rights Reserved
