Journey

The journey we have travelled has been long and weary. Our senses have long been numbed and  grew insensitive over time of what awaits across the frosty desert. The wind blows in a peculiar way unlike the cool sea breeze in the Caribbean. Thirsty we have been with shivering knees, dragging through the sands our swollen feet,  the unwinding foot steps we left behind now haunts us forever still.  Across mountainous dunes we walked like gypsies as the ghosts' howls  deafened our ears past the ridges of life and death.  The moon long ago has hidden itself from the wickedness of the stars above and the skies have long been dark and dull forever losing its glory. We had hoped dawn would be nearing to give us a glimpse of hope but to our dismay it would for eternity never materialize.  Time no longer meant anything for the suffering we have is tremendously unbearable beyond the likes of this accursed world. The little sanity left within these flesh are just barely enough to comprehend the darkness that had enveloped this world. We can no longer escape the shackles that bind us to the raging inferno. Forward we march, step by step deeper to the unknown abyss forever in chaos and disarray. We hope one day will come and the journey we have taken will soon be perhaps at an end but we doubt it would ever happen. Long before had our tears dried up from the scourging menace of this unmerciful desert. The burden we carry from our forefathers i fear would soon be taken by our sons and future generations to come never ending till the end of time. We are for eternity bound to the captivity and forever marked through the blood in our veins.
