He lost
His heart
In that
Place of pain and
Desolation,
Where faith
Blows away
Like dust
In the wind.

He lost
His soul
In the wilderness
Of sorrow
Through the
Heat and dry
Of a hopeless land.

When will the
Water come,
And the cooling
Breeze of
A fresh clear
Day?

When will
His soul be
Resuscitated,
And his
Lifeless heart
Beat again?
