Quicksand

Quicksand closing in around my eyes
Quicksand forcing me to realize
Nothing that I see
Can get through this wall to me
This wall of quicksand closing in around my mind
Quicksand and I’m losing track of time
Sinking like a stone
All the dreams that I have ever known
Sinking into quicksand closing in around my heart
Quicksand teaching me further poems
From the things I feel
All that it can steal
Taken and concealed
Not to be revealed
About quicksand
From the things I feel
All that it can steal
Taken and concealed
Not to be revealed
About quicksand
Talking about quicksand
Singing about quicksand
