The Devil Of The Deserts

Do you know me?

Do you awaken screaming my name?

Do the images of me linger

Into your waking hours?

I am the eternal dream

The unreachable goal

That which you strive for

But never achieve

I am your desire

Your deepest wish

And greatest fear

I am your nightmare

I whisper to you

Like the buzzing of insects

Secrets of the desert

You tell me all your wishes

Your innermost dreams

And hope to see them

I see your nightmares

Drink them in

And refine them

I give you

Your nightmares back

And your screams never stop

Somewhere in the desert

Your screams echo

Like the buzzing of insects

Be now the djinn

While I roam in the world

In your skin

Do you know me?

Do you awaken screaming my name?

Do the images of me linger

Into your waking hours?

I am desperation

The love lost

But always longed for

I am despair

I am the dark

When all light is gone

And you are alone

I am your destiny

I am life!

I give you

Your nightmares back

And your screams never stop

Somewhere in the desert

Your screams echo

Like the buzzing of insects

Be now the djinn

While I roam in the world

In your skin
