I wander through a desert of loneliness.
The harder I try to get through the sand,
The harder it pushes down on me.
I slowly fall deeper,
From my ankles,
Then to my hips,
To my chest.
I struggle against the sand,
But I don't have the strength to fight.
And why should I anyway?
No one needs me,
No one wants me,
And so I wander in the desert,
Forever alone,
Forever marked by all the things
Of my parents doing.
I have no choice.
No one tries to help.
No one even cares.
So I sink,
And sink.
And sink.
Until I drown.
Doesn't anyone hear my screams?
Doesn't anyone know how to help?
Doesn't anyone care?
