He wandered without water the desert sun shone down brightly .
The blistering heat got hotter . 

Without a drop of water .  

All of the tears he shed were dry ,
There was no water there .
For forty days he was alone .

No one knew .

No one cared .

He was like a desert so dry and hot .
He couldn't think .
In his weakness he was tempted , with no water to drink he cried .
Quench me please I want to live older than thirty .

Wash me with cool water my body's dusty and dirty .

He was trying .

He was crying .

He was dying out there .

In the dark night of the soul there was no water to spare .

Day after day he walked on and then he began to crawl .

Feeling lower than dust until he felt was nothing at all .

Jesus was in the desert without an end to his prayer .

There was no one who could have gave him water .

Do you care ?
