i think im gonna go throw myself off a cliff
into the deep end
where i cant feel anything
and where no one can save me
a dark abyss where everything ceases to be
and its ok because thats the way its supposed to be
instead of this desert
this drought in the rainforest
that was once full of life
now i wander this sand filled
litter box of life
trying to avoid the clumps of shit
wish for the days when the water ran
and the air was cool with your breath
fragrant with the smell of you
populated by the life we had together
overgrown with our happiness
the cessation of water has dehydrated me
and the earth
sagebrushes of memories tumble by
wind hot on my face dries my tears
and in the distance
a mirage
my hope of an oasis
of relief that will
never
come.
