Let not the thirst control you
guide or lead you on
lest you find yourself
swallowing only sand
slipping through your fingers
The journey through the desert
will carry on as lengthy
as it is meant to be
and you will find the well
from which you’re meant to drink
only if your eyes are clear
enough to see it through
and if your soul is lifted
unburdened by the weight
of the struggle to define
what you truly seek
