Sweat’s pouring from his brow,
The sun beats him down.
The dust chokes his lungs,
And still he trudges on.

He doesn’t have a thing
But the clothes on his back,
The sand sears his feet,
And still he trudges on.

Neglected by his own,
He’s been cast into exile,
Doomed to wander the desert,
So still he trudges on.

Of all the things that I confess,
Here's one that is doubtless
I will love you always Jess
Never think I could love you less

Its easy to feel were walking that desert alone  
but were all walking it together
no matter how much it feels like were in exile

This poem reminds me of one that I wrote ahile back, any who this is a well flowing, well writen poem. Good job, 'till your next.

I liked this one a lot. Well done here. I hope to see some more.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.
