All that glitters is not gold But beyond the waking world Wonderland calls to me I find myself entranced by these glimmers of warmth in my mind. Before the bitterness of reality took over These memories of ghosts long past are sweetened with vulnerability I savor them again and again Unable or perhaps unwilling To separate myself from their thrall

Before the bitterness of reality took over These memories of ghosts long past are sweetened with vulnerability I savor them again and again Unable or perhaps unwilling To separate myself from their thrall
