Feeling so thirsty like I’m gonna die
watching the gulls as they soar and they fly
the heat on my skin burns like fires of hell
inside my mind my mouth opens to yell
before I can think it my breath slips away
no longer here not for one other day
miserable and gloomy, so it may seem
thank God it is only a real vivid dream
