Quicksand

by @Myplans20

As I wake everyday life seems to drag me down, It just seems like I'm a never-ending pawn, I try hard everyday to stay above ground, But it seems like drowning and my arms are bound, I can't help but to think that my life is quicksand, And it seems like everything I do I'm just not landing, My head and body fights for air, It seems like there is no end near, People look on with crossed arms, I can see in their eyes my darkest times, Feels like they're pushing me into the ground, Would they ever notice I'm no longer around, It just seems like I'm in my own quicksand, Would anyone ever give me a hand, Or am I in this fight against the hourglass, Only time can tell and I only hope this will pass, Until that time I'll be here in the quicksand, Hoping someone or something will give me a hand...
