I cast aside my dreams of the sea,
and floated across sandy shores.

Left my footprints in the rolling dunes,
watched the sun scorch the sky.

All the world seemed to shimmer,
boiling ground beneath a burning sun.

Around me all the waves were silent,
held still like a captured moment.

Skull bleached bones and lonely cactus,
parched oasis and blacked palms.

Haunted rocks from sand blasted winds,
cool shadows turning clockwork precise.

silence and clear blue skies,
no respite until night.
