Quicksand

Deamons and marvels

Winds and tides

Far away already, the sea has ebbed

And you

Like seaweed slowly carressed by the wind

In the sands of the bed you stir, dreaming

Deamons and marvels

Winds and tides

Far away already, the sea has ebbed

But in your half-opened eyes

Two small waves have remained

Deamons and marvels

Winds and tides

Two small waves to drown me
