Latrell

LATRELL

Like the desert my love goes a distance 
for I search for you Latrell...
 Our love is symbolic for a love grows
 fonder after the heart wanders 

I walk with no shoes through the broken
 field of sand, as my feet bleed with no
 shoes…... I fight to see you…. 

The mirage appears as the imagery is near..
 my feet bleed as they collapsed beneath my
 knees and now I'm crawling…... The climax
 of our love has made you on top, and now
 I search for that world…. 

As my heart beats faster as I'm near but…
 again a mirage appears and you've disappeared
…. As I close my eyes I'm alone… 
Latrell ...where are you?
