Untold

Emotions roam in search of land:

expression desert
words like sand

drifting blowing gritty slowing

dead to sense
infertile
grained

arid barren meanings drained

blinding burning winding grinding

desolation miles wide

desiccation
thirst denied

but still it quests
that driven wish
to phrase at last
this love untold.
