Destination
What Lies Beyond the Horizon

Riding across the desert sand, the horse's mouth foams white and nostrils flare harshly
Hot air suffocating his lungs, each step becoming more arduous than the last
The rider perspires, hot sweat rolling down his brow bone and trailing the bridge of his nose
His eyes are clouded with fatigue, the sand and air is swaying to the rhythm of his heartbeat
The blinding sun descends across the rolling dunes of the unforgiving desert, a fantastic medley of violet, blood red, and orange paints the sky
The array of colors transitions into a deep blue
Stars mockingly wink down on the horse and rider
Shimmering moonlight brushes the surface of the cooling sand
The edge is near
Darkness is their final destination
