Gnawing emptiness that stretches for miles
It conceals the angry voices hidden behind my smiles
Amid searing heat and whipping sand
Danger and Cactus dot this vast land
Yet no voices greet my desperate calls
Only eerie echoes as befitting a dim hall
The sand sucks at my feet and invites me deeper
But I resist and move on, the terrain growing steeper
The desolate landscape keeps me captive
And still I struggle to live
Like a flower stripped of its blooms
My heart is an empty room
Like a widening crack in the earth
I struggle to find my worth
There’s no escape from this terrain
Only wilted cactus in this parched plain
