Sand in my eyes,
Sand in my mouth,
Sand in my ears
And sand up my nose.
Clouds of grit surround me
As the sun beats down,
Heating everything around me.
I can feel my skin blistering
From that heat.
My eyes sting from the salty and rough sand
That has blown into my eyes,
My mouth is dry
As there is no water left
And I haven't eaten in days.
For what seems like forever
I've walked
Through this hellish desert!
Not knowing if I'll ever be rescued,
And not knowing how much longer
I will be able to last out here,
Without food,
Without water,
Without hope for help.
