Oasis
Through arid slopes of the desert desolate,
Where droughts I have quietly endured
And both toil and thirst knew no end
Astray, I stumbled upon mocking fate.
The sand dunes patterned nothing but vain
Wishes were made to chase the rain.
My sunken heart unsure
Of where I have been,
Where I was bound to
And why I walked alone.
Oasis, the sight of you
Brought me to life unknown
All my burdens you took from me
You quenched me, cleansed me too.
I learned to breathe a new symphony
Oasis, listen to me, for this I am sure,
You are my comfort, my loving cure.
