I gaze into the battlefield
that is my soul
—blood dripped from
scars closed long ago
I gaze into the battlefield
that is my soul
—how have I fought
deep trenches in it soI gaze into the wasteland
that is my life
—winds blew in
dry scratches felt
so long before
I gaze into the wasteland
that is my life
—how have I longed
to grasp for
something moreI gaze into the desert
that is my heart
—the sun shone
until it dried
my meager waters
I gaze into the desert
that is my heart
—how have I thirsted
for something that
never faltersI gaze into the remnants
that is my world
—thoughts razed
everything I have
ever been given
I gaze into the remnants
that is my world
—how have I gotten lost
in my own quest
to start over again
