Quicksand

"one lie's not so bad"

I said

"just one won't hurt much"

so I did it.

But I never realized

something so "small"

could be so heavy

so destructive

When a termite and a mansion come face to face

Who wins?

Oh no

I have to lie to cover for the first

so I do it again

it keeps getting easier and easier

yet heavier and heavier

and now it's pulling me down

and I'm looking for a lifeline

but I buried it with deception

The same deception pulling me to destruction

I'm trapped in quicksand

and I can't get out on my own...
