Down The Rabbit Hole

Down the rabbit hole I go.

Down into the darkness I fall.

How far down does it go?

Faster and faster I fall.

Till my body hits the ground.

Down the rabbit hole I go.

Into my wonderland of madness.

All around me are roses painted red.

Painted not with paint but with blood.

Who's blood I dare not ask.

Could be my own, could be my demons.

Down the rabbit hole I go.

I continue to walk around my wonderland of madness.

I see the Cheshire Cat up in a tree.

He smiles sinister at me.

"We're all mad here" he tells me in a soothing voice.

I watched as he disappears leavening only his smile for a brief moment.

Down the rabbit hole I go.

Joining the Hatter and the Hare for a cup of tea.

They dance around singing their nonsense tune.

Tea time this, unbirthday that.

Oh how this bores me, I never liked tea party's.

Down the rabbit hole I go.

Meeting the queen of hearts for a game of croquet.

"Off with their heads" she screams loudly.

Why she does? I do not know.

I've had enough of it all.

Down the rabbit hole I go.

I sit upon her thrown, a wicked smile on my face.

We're all mad here, is what that darn cat said.

Oh, how right he was.

For I am mad, very, very mad.

You could say as mad as a Hatter.

I pick up his hat and place it on top of my head.

Down the rabbit hole I go.

Into my wonderland of madness.

Where I am the queen of the mad and broken.

Will you come down the rabbit hole with me?

And join in my wonderland of madness?


A/N not really as dark as some of my other poems, but I had moment of inspiration so why not.
