Scorched Poem by Sarah Sisson

Scorched



Oh, I am parched waiting here for you in the heat;
the smothering weather over my glistening skin.

The temperature will not permit me to stay.
I will leave without you if that must be.

I wither as I waste every morsel of water...
...dripping from me.... and I thirst.

I will go.... and leave you to your heat.
This scolding day will no longer entertain me.
