Unflinching Determination


This poem came from the very bottm of my heart. It was written over ten years ago but I still like it.

Unflinching Determination

The endless is the desert
The sun burning bright
The grilled sand is ruthless
And the hot wind in its flight.

The body burnt by the sun
The feet reddened with blood
Tramping alone a young man
Tortured by the mighty thirst.

At the peak of his sufferings
He saw a little Oasis
Covered with tall green trees
Was the water cold and clean.

But

Just gave it a glance and continued
As couldn’t afford his course askew.
