Escape...

I lay with my head deep, feeling the sand within...
The scorching sun blinding, burning my skin...
I can barely hear...Is that a distant cry...
I can sense the shadows as the vultures fly...
Their hungry eyes... ready to gnaw at my bones...
I open my mouth to scream...alas just moans...
No reason to live no water no leaf no bone...
No seas...no mirage...no hope..no songs... no soul...
As the hours of sand cave in on my wretched state...
I resign, resign to my fate...
Did I come here to die... to wither away....
To end the suffering...the deceit...the agony...
Now I feel no pain I feel no sorrow...
I have no hope for a tomorrow...
As I step into a land far away... I know this was the only escape...
