Africa; Forget Me Not

Forget me not, 
Cold, brisk African air. 
Forget not how my tears watered, 
The cracks of the Sossusvlei 
Seeping deep into the cracking veins of the Earth. 
Or how my warm breathe, 
Spread through the air, 
Breathing out a thirst for opportunity. 
Forget me not, 
My Africa. 
Forget me not, 
As my soul explores, 
In search for return.  
Forget me not, 
Cold, brisk African air.
