Sinking in the desert’s quicksand
With no one to lend a helping hand
Who do I turn for help as I continue to sink deeply.
My voice faints with my constant shouts for help
But everyone seems to be trending his own path with no one taking heed to my call.
Learnt and practiced the principle of the Golden Rule
Pulling others from life’s quicksand, but no one to help me out of mine
Dreams and hopes of many crushing
As people we thought as family looked on
I console my heart with the saying “be anxious for nothing”
But here I am being anxious for everything.
Uncertain what my next step should be.
With constant faith and trust
I believe I with be saved from this quicksand.
