Hourglass

I still haven't decided yet
if it was 
a blessing or a curse
when I first laid my eyes on you.

I was surefooted before,
always the one 
steady at my feet.

Yet when our eyes met,
the ground suddenly shifted 
beneath my feet
and started sucking me in
its quick sinking sand
till I'm halfway deep.

I reminded myself
that this too shall pass,
that it was nothing but just 
a little earthquake 
that will soon end.

But everytime the sand 
begins to empty
from this glass chamber that I am in...

You'll just turn it all around
with a flick of your wrist
and I'd find myself
falling all over again.
