cracked
dust colors the horizon
a musky red
fraying into
the velvet violet light
of a sleeping sun
the river bed is dry
as dry as cracked lips
that scorch kind words
into burnt lies
the river bed is dry
as dry as a torn heart
that is unable
to trust
just pulverise into
particles unseen
the river bed is dry
as dry as an exhausted soul
an everlasting drought
quenching for self worth
cracked earth.
