I took my heart out for a stroll
Fell deep into a rabbit hole
Read tales and poems of true love
Stories that make believes, made of
Reality, quickly pulled me back out
Blackened my eyes, bloodied my mouth
The love I found, was dark and mean
Nothing of what I thought it’d be
I understand why Alice wandered
For deeper understanding, wondered
A Cheshire cat and wild hare
The queen of hearts confounding glare
Is all the evidence I need
To deny my broken heart to bleed
Ill keep it safe, hidden away
To share it with someone, some day
Till then, time hurriedly ticks away
Reminding me, I’m running late

Fabulous!!! Fantastically written!!! Loving it!!!💕♥️♥️ Have you read my Limerick, TEEN SPIRIT? Read online that today was whether Nevermind Album was released.
Wonderful piece. Well done, my friend.
Like what you did here with the Alice in Wonderland imagery. And I love that first line. So nonchalant, like having a promenade!
I'm keeping my bleeding heart locked up for good, lol!
Aren't we all? Oh to return to a time before hearts were broken & time itself seemed to stretch on forever with endless possibilities. Though, if given the choice, would we?
hiding is protecting, 😥, nice piece my friend 😊
I too want to want to hide my feelings, and reveal them only at the right time. My thoughts! Read mine? A shy woman describes her feelings about a special someone. https://shopping-feedback.today/poets/golden-moments-mo2sb0bxk%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/span%3E%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3C/div%3E%3Cdiv class="css-w4qknv-Replies">
