I never wanted this desert



I never wanted this desert,
boundless land of un-plenty.

No words grow here,
not even a mirage

Beckoning
in the distance.

Only the night's
cold silence,

The wind
dissipating dreams.

This has a sense of bleakness about it, as though vast space and a sense of deep contemplation are wrapped in your words.

Nice writing Kayin.

Oh nice. Pleasantly dark, but begging for some light.
