Quicksand

I’m drowning in you

I oncefound it metaphoric

and beautiful

but now its consuming

and I feel as if

Im delusional

clinging to false hope

with enough rope

to hang myself

but not enough to get a grip

whether I do or don’t I’m damned

I can not take a stand

because I’ve fallen

the ground beneath me softens

and I sink

into you like quicksand
