Loneliness
Traveling for days and days,
Road! Long and open,
Miles and miles of dry lifeless land,
Scorching sun beating down,
Intense flaming blistering heat,
Nothingness parched and shrivelled,
Dehydrated and thirsty,
Water was all to think of,
Tired and sleepy,
Looking for somewhere to camp,
Sun going down,
Next town ahead,
Great! People! Life,
Sign posted! This way,
This looks like a good place to rest,
Hello! Anybody there!
Ring bell!
Seems very strange!
Very dusty!
Oh! No!
Ghost Town,
Loneliness!
Fear!
