Deserted

Among the sand hills,
I walk naked, with chivalry lost
and the regret of an oasis passed.

I see nothing but the sand dunes.
I hear nothing but swooshing winds.
I find none but my own dark shadow.

In a place so deserted,
I wish I become one
with what’s filled here.

A sand grain…
ingrained in the memory of
someone not worth regretting over.
