Before them we were lost; we were stuck in our twisted version of wonderland.
Before them I hadn't noticed; my sister was following in my footsteps, spiralling into a dark hole.
Before them I had forgotten; I'd lost myself in the drugs and isolation...
Tysm for all the views, it's not much to others but just to see that people are actually reading my book no matter how many there are makes me so happy. 🌿listen to Stay High by Tove Lo while reading this piece🌿 This chapter really just gives you a view into Poppy's everyday life. I have two rabbits myself so the ones in the story are inspired by my little ones. ------------------------------------------ The small gathering had been finished for a while now, most people were either a mess on my floor or had left anyway. I was sat in heap of bodies, my head was spinning and my eyelids began to feel heavy. I rubbed it and began to break free from the arms and legs scattered around.

I hopped over body parts laying around me and made my way to the large mirror on the wall. My hair had gone ecstatic and my makeup smudged to the left side of my face where I had rested my head in the couch and my eyes looked empty, the red veins had grown further towards my pupil. My lips were chapped and my body had red marks on it where people had be groping at me or lying on me. I was stood there in only my underwear. As I examined myself in the mirror a couple of groans merged from the pile on the floor so then made my way over to the window. It was dark out,the street lamps were spotlights on the concrete paths. Vague trees were scattered around close to what I could only just make out to be houses, half of it was left to my assumptions. I pulled out a spliff from between my cleavage and lit it with the lighter perched on the windowsill, then stared into the distance through my looking glass as people began to leave one by one.

I was stood there for two hours and there were only three people left asleep on my couch, I'd lost time and it had lost me. I held the roll between my teeth and strolled over, taking the blanket from the armrest I spread it over them, they were all close friends of mine so I didn't mind them staying. The three were piled on top of each other, they've never looked so peaceful. I returned to my window and closed to the curtains and then went back to tidying the room, still with my spiff in my mouth. The night carried on endlessly, it was going to last forever I thought. Once I had done scrubbing at the walls and floors of one of our opened planned living rooms, I set my cleaning stuff aside and made my way to the kitchen. I squinted at the clock as I shuffled in. 2:45am Rubbing my head with one hand, I searched for the light switch with the other, my hand patted all over the wall and then I found it. I switched it on and my eyes took a moment to adjust and then I shuffled on, continuing to take a drag. As I started raiding the fridge, behind me I heard a couple of light thumps and then a small rabbit came hopping in, it was Nala.

The rooms of my house were all quiet except the patters of tiny paws dotted around. I bent down to great her so two others quickly followed- Pumpkin and Indigo.

I tapped my fingers on the ground to get their interest, I soon found myself on the floor of my kitchen with three rabbits to cuddle. The spliff had soon lost its purpose as I put it out and went on to fuss these balls of fluff.
