oasis

it's a long
list of hits
and misses, bumps
on the hard road.
but sometimes
there is an oasis
of a girl who
takes you in
and doesn't
interrogate
your soul,
or question
where you've
been or where
you might be
going when the sun
comes up again.
her lips are like
water, cool
and wet on the
driest of days.
she says she'll
wait, and those
words alone
will make you stay.
