Cure the Pain

Sapless day, words scattered here and there like distraught emotions 

Knelt before an unsparing time

Hoping for auspicious signs, as long as this body can bear the heat

Feels stifled; the unbearable stillness evaporates

Tears of pained earth dries up- sometimes pain is unexplainable

Nature's hardened landscapes offer no solace

Eyes drift beyond the consciousness, hoping to find magical change

Undoing the harsh treatment of existence is an arduous task

If true prayers echoed from the congregation

Waiting for a divine sign; hoping, clouds will float again to heal the pain
