Lost Time
I lay in the shadowy deseert on top of the faded memories of the sand
My ears hear silence as life tick tocks away
The painful sand heats and burns my back with bruises
leaving me permanent scars from my slothness
Desire closely resembles fire
and my flame ran out as did my ambition
My fire abandoned me, left me amongst the sands of the forgotten and lost
I lay still as a corpse as night and day continue to pass by
My naked body remains in its place forever
Turning into an ageless rock left to suffer lost time and lost dreams
Eroding away from the harsh winds and regrets
Condemned with the chilly cold air of the night
Cold ominous air that breathes the breath of fresh death
as I lay in my slumber on top the shadowy forgotten sands of the lonely desert
I age like the rock, left to suffer lost time and dreams
My ears hear silence as life tick tocks away
The painful sand heats and burns my back with bruises
leaving me permanent scars from my slothness
Desire closely resembles fire
and my flame ran out as did my ambition
My fire abandoned me, left me amongst the sands of the forgotten and lost
I lay still as a corpse as night and day continue to pass by
My naked body remains in its place forever
Turning into an ageless rock left to suffer lost time and lost dreams
Eroding away from the harsh winds and regrets
Condemned with the chilly cold air of the night
Cold ominous air that breathes the breath of fresh death
as I lay in my slumber on top the shadowy forgotten sands of the lonely desert
I age like the rock, left to suffer lost time and dreams
