Dehydrated

Pestilence

Lost in the desert for reasons unknown

An extensive barren plain before you

A gruesome affliction; the heat of the sun

Don't really know in what direction to go



Make your way in the loose sand

No protecting shade in this hostile land

It's not the hunger but it's the thirst

The awful suffering which vexes you worst



Hallucinations; thirst drives you insane

The shrinking of your skin, bursting lips

your body-fluid is floating away

The claws of death got you in their grip



'Water' is your last word

As your internal organs decay

Dehydrated, emaciated

Your life slowly fades away



Vultures circling in the sky

peeling the flesh from a corpse

Blankened bones are all that`s left

Dehydration as the death the cause



Another cadaver in the loose sand

Not the last victim of this hostile land

Without any water you won`t last

Die in the desert, death comes fast
