Oasis

Poem...

I have this dream night after night

That I am alone In a desert of scorching sand

And I am so very thirsty

I walk

And I walk

And I walk

Aimlessly

It feels As though I walk these circles

Endlessly

My thirst never quenched

And I feel as though I might

Cry

Just to drink my own tears

But my eyes are dry

My tears stolen by the sun

Before they even reach my parched lips

Hours and

Hours go by

Slow

And I begin to feel my feet drag

And just as I feel I might die with one more step

I see it

There is this incredible

Beautiful

Crystal

Waterfall

And it doesn't occur to me

How this waterfall comes to be

As I run

Unsteadily

Into its clear azure water

And I breathe in

As I inhale the scent of it

My mind comes back to me

And then I realize

I am still here

In these sheets

Right next to you

And the waterfall was your hair

And the intoxicating scent

Your skin

And I understand

You are

My oasis

To Be Lost Again

I don't recall how I came to be wandering along this beaten and weary path. There are various weeds, Dandelions and Buttercups, scattered along the trail and branches, plants, and poison oak have overgrown the debris strewn pathway, claiming it...
