Wasteland Rose

I had always wondered why you stayed.

In a sea of choices,

you returned

to the barren shore

to a wasteland

There’s a calm about you

in your eyes

Always thought you were

in denial

Now I’m the only one, always hanging on, to this place

Now I’m the only one, mad enough to stay, one more day

As the saying goes

I fell close

 In this barren shore

I’m a wasteland rose

Now I’m the only one, always hanging on, to this place

Now I’m the only one, mad enough to stay, one more day
