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
