Sandstorm Embracement
Elements : Earth and Air
Beneath a sky I lay in vast emptiness
a desolate Earth of silica, still in silence.
a barren desert burning in hot flames.
quartz and granite in my fields of gold.
My ocean of sand, with a mirage afar
only thorns of hope in my parched soul.
Suddenly you arrive, whirling and slinging
A gale of storm, untamed and possesed
willowy oak needles piercing my grains
in your fervour so violent and fiendish
inebriated and dessicated, yet I fall in love.
thirst of my sand quenches in your Air
full of slivers, in your tumultuous lust
wrapped in your arms in my own dust
we roll and toss together...
we rise and fall together...
In our Embracement you erode me
and in my new dune, I bury your love.
I nurture a new garden in our oasis rain
My Sand and Your Storm ...
When will we see each other again ?
