Trudging slowly down the red dust roads.
Beast gnaw and gnash my flesh.
Dripping blood trails forever in my path.
Earth soaking all life from it.
I walk on, silent and hallow.
Glassed eyes protect my soul,
While i lose my body over time,
Though I lost my mind and heart in an instant.
Roaming, lost, desperate, quite.
Hidden from view of prowling questions.
A mask, thick, but heavy, drawn down over myself.
Like a mummy's coffin,
Showing no change,
Though I fall apart from inside.
Life's simple goal a vanishing dream.
God looks past me,
Jesus looks down on me,
Allah thinks not of me,
Buddha sits on me.
Neglected, Discouraged, Unknown, Unseen.
Walking forever, this blood stained trail.
