Walking

searching in the desert, not sure just where I am I've been walking here for years and I don't know where I began I'd like a sip of water but it just keeps slipping through my hand catching a drip here and there the rest dissoving in the sand mirages come to trick, like I have found a slight retreat from this unforgiving world, from this unforgiving heat but I just continue walking, I will not accept defeat until I can no longer keep going I will not let myself be beat I see the people that I love appear and fade away the sun blinding my vision I see everything in gray I ask them to take me with them but they tell me I must stay so still I continue walking praying I live another day suddenly a shadow, I see a cloud in the clear sky I don't know where it came from but I do not dare ask why it darkens everything around me, as I billow out a cry then the rain begins to pour, my savior falling from the sky. ...saved without a warning as I tell this hell goodbye.
