You were the rabbit hole,
and I was sucked right in,
Drunk off the lies,
the thought of your skin.
I crawled in deeper,
hungry for more,
frantically falling
until I hit the floor.
Thirsty for praise
a need for love,
the want for you
running in my blood.
And then I looked in the mirror
and saw the castle behind me
and realized I wasn’t Alice
but I was the Queen.
Keeper of hearts,
breaker of yours
unaware of your truth
until it broke on the floor.
Keeper, breaker, endless wish maker,
I live, and dream of the day
you come back to me
and take my breath away.
And then I woke up.
Dead dreams.
