---

i believed nothing could break my will

the desert does not forgive.

my eyes fighting against the bitter sun

the miles do not end

the tundra is all there is, and all that will be

i fall, my face in burning sand.

my will so distant now

as my body collapses, i can't recall why i am here at all

this is not my world of dreams, my life of promise

where is my world? where is my truth?

i have found the only truth in the burning desert sand i will finally find silence
