Writetober 2024, Horror Haven: Day 10: Wastelander

Through scorched earth and twisted trees, 

A lone soul wanders, her defense never at ease.

With tattered clothes and weary feet, 

She seeks a haven, a safe retreat. 

But danger lurks in every bend, 

A constant threat with no end.

The sky is dark, the sun a blistering wound, 

Any green life disappeared without a single sound.

Yet still she fights, with all her might,

 To keep the flame of life alight.
