The Desert

i miss you like
the desert misses the rain 

ive adapted to 
live without you 
ive buried everything 
we grew 
and if we meet again,
disaster will strike
but there is one thing 
about the end:

i will still be here,
i will benefit from
disaster, 
and you will be the 
one coming back 
to me
