Open my eyes 

Dry with stale tears

It itches

It burns

Lift my hand 

Full with desert sand

In the desert of my mind

Long dead wilderness

Without a hope 

Or a love

It's so hot here

Still my feet freeze

They'er numb 

With a bite to kill

And tounges of hate

The absence

Of night

Here it is always sky full

And the skys won't fall

Always unsettling 

Always blue

Cold sickness

Eyes of pain

I roll over in my mind

Roling to escape

Still without escape

And it steals my humanity

Lying here without bird's call

Nor birds to fly

Tell me then

What is a sun that does not move?

What is a sky without cloud or night?

What is a fire that does not burn?

What is a bird without wings?

Or a human without

Love, hope, and freedom?

What is the tea with no company?

Hell

In my mind?

Hell
