I Wander the Desert Alone

Yesterday I had a dream I was lost, feeling thirst, alone Wandering in a barred desert While the curtain of the night fell upon me… I had no destination, no compass, no goal Nothing to guide me besides my will to survive Every little sound scared me I was terrified of things that could bump me in the night While I stumbled through the dunes, shivering from the cold, The moon shone bright and I saw a dark figure Riding a powerful horse and calling my name… In my crazy stupor, I started running towards him I knew he was my savior, my destiny, my Oasis He was the other half of my soul… Only in his arms I would be whole again… When I got close, he pulled me into his horse And held me tight in his arms… And finally… I felt alive again… October 02, 2018 For the contest: I wander the desert alone Sponsor: Edward Ibeh
