7. Poem.

Here's a poem I found online at deviant art. It's not the best poem, but I can relate to it so well. What about you?

"Alice in Hungerland"

They watch us
The ever perfect beings
Of heavenly grace and charm
They may see us
But do they know us?

Oh Alice
Tumbling down your rabbit hole
Oh Alice
Will we ever reach your goal?

Beings full of perfection
Don't see the beauty you see
Simple vows, nothing more then....
Always under observation
Eating invisible meals
off of empty plates
and drinking nothing out of glass
Isn't it lovely to see things shrink?

Oh Alice
Tumbling down your rabbit hole
Oh Alice
Will I ever be as perfect as you?

Have I gone too far?
I can't believe in normal any longer
I want to give up
I want to give in
But I'm so close
Only inches away
I want to give up
I want to give in
I'm alive and dead
Nothing more
I want to give up
I want to give in
Alice, beautiful Alice
What am I to you?
I want to give up
I want to give in
I want to give up
I want to give in
I want to give up
I want to give in
I want to give up
I need to give in

Into your hunger
Into your way
I'll fight any strife
That will cross my path
I am yours
Now and forever

Oh Alice
Tumbling down your rabbit hole
Oh Alice
Can they see what you do to me?

Hold be close
Thinspire me to do your will
Alice hold me close
Alice hold me close

Oh Alice
Tumbling down your rabbit hole
Oh Alice
Wont you take my imperfections?

My schedule
So irregular
I'm anything but normal
I've sold my soul to you
I've given you everything I am
My beautiful angel of pain

Oh Alice
Tumbling down your rabbit hole
Oh Alice
You're all I ever wanted
Oh Alice
Spiraling out of control
Oh Alice
I see how wrong I am
Oh Alice
I want to live again
Oh Alice
I've fallen out of control
Fallen for freedom

Oh Alice
Take me back




Stay strong. <3

It's not the best poem I've read, but it was interesting. I can also relate to it.
