Quicksand

I find myself in the heart of a dark forest
nothing is alive among life
the trees and birds are like statues
no flapping nor rustling

then i saw a light
it was over whelmingly bright
it lit the dark world around me
allowing me to see

when i saw what gave me light
i saw the most precious life
a being so graceful
that her movements emit light

she was there across a path
that seemed only a yard lon'
she was the sun
at the break of dawn

so I ran toward her
with all my might
if only to grasp
that most precious sight

little did i know
that in my path was sand
not normal sand
on which you can stand

this sand grabbed hold
with all its might
and the more I moved
the more the grip grew tight

I could not move forward
nor could i return
to my dark haven
for which i didnt not yern

so I stood still
hoping for the best
letting my mind wander
while my body did rest

no matter what how long i thought
nor how little i moved
i found myself slowly sinking
into despare

I am now up to my chest
within my heart beats
for the beauty before me
I the less of least

I felt I must cry out
or i will never be heard
for i had my doubts
for my existence

I wished and hope that she would come
and rescue me from this terrible swamp
but she did not come nor did she glance
now im an under the deadly sand
