The unforgiving
The sun beats down, relentless and fierce
On the parched earth of her land
The burning heat sears every inch
Leaving no refuge, no place to stand
The scorching rays, a fiery blaze
Blistering and unforgiving
As the land bakes, parched and dry
Under the unforgiving sun
The air shimmers, hot and still
As the heat consumes all
No respite from the inferno
As the land writhes, parched and dry
The sun reigns supreme, a fiery god
In the burning, unforgiving sky.
