Saline Oasis

A glittering jewel on the horizon.
No mirage this time.
Beauty amidst the desert sands.
The last hope of a dying man.


Fall to your knees, drink you fill.
Ever parched your thirst is never quenched.
See what you need, your only hope.
Saline oasis.


There is no going back.
Sacrificed it all for this.
You are not the first.


Scorched in isolation.
Only solace in despair.
Drenched in arid tears.
Cursed is you salvation.


Hope drains away.
Comprehend your demise.
Your cries will not echo.
No help from those left behind.


Oppression of infinite skies.
The bleak sands of time.
Your passing leaves no remains.
Only zephyrs of your pride.


There is no going back.
You are not the first.
Sacrificed it all for this.
You are not the last.


Fall to your knees.
Drink your fill,
See what you need, your only hope.
Saline oasis.
