His Oasis



A changed world, he stares into the distance,
his eyes try to focus on what once was, in memory.
He makes his way to the cliffside and leans tired against a large rock.
He’s been here many times before, when there was so much here to see.

Sweat poured down his head, blurring, stinging his eyes,
time outside along this walk, not the same, his heart cries.

A mirage shakes like a water effect,
his oasis in the burning sun.
Such love, one he could never forget,
she was the only one.

Change came slowly,
time a metamorphosis,
a chameleon in the desert sun,
he remembers their first kiss.

The sky burns orange and red,
now hearing the goodbye, he didn’t want to hear,
his heart bled.

A changed world, he stares into the distance,
his eyes try to focus on what is, and what he needs to see.
She smiles down in cool drops of rain, replenishing.
His eyes catching sight of what lies ahead,
a mirage shakes like a water effect, his oasis,
his love, she dances along in the quiet haunting tree.
