No Wonderland
In a lonely darkened pit I wander,
some might call it hell
but it's far too familiar
every texture, every smell.
It's been with me for so long
I choose to call it home
this cold and lonely labyrinth
of desperation that I roam.
Searching in vain for my true love fair
Crying out her name hoping she'll be there,
but only the wind will answer
echoing her name,
taunting me and haunting me
is it all just a dream.
An opioid delusion as a field of poppies I cross.
Breathing in a fragrance nearly as intoxicating as her,
down the rabbit hole I tumble
everything becomes a blur.
Alice sweet Alice
won't you please come home.
This is no wonderland since you've gone.
