I don’t know how things got so bad

Life falls apart in the slow motion of a hurricane

Everything comes tumbling down

And is blown away

Scattered pieces never found

Must rebuild but need stable ground

Sinking in the quicksand of time

Struggling against it

Falling ever deeper into its grip

Waiting for a knight and shining armor

But only finding rats scurrying in the night

Biting

Clawing

Gnawing

Unable to escape the pain

Laying broken on the floor

Sobbing

I can't take this anymore
