In my mind I have fallen quite far
quite further than my mind once thought
So like Alice into
                             the
                                   rabbit
                                               hole
                                                       I go
Chasing what was once my shadow
But now it seems to have become my ghost
And how it haunts me these days
Laughing as it taunts me in endless shame
Yet hopelessly I
                            chase
                                      it
                                         down
                                                    further
Not becoming any closer
Just further away
Always just close enough
But to far away from



What Matters?
Sometimes we chase after the things we want and often find ourselves the furthest from what actually matters.
