Call Me Alice

There are ground rules 

That I broke 

Those that we promised 

I can no longer abide by 

 

Do not fall in love with me 

you said 

The warning sign so clear

 

But I fell down the rabbit hole

With no return 

The only indication being the dull ache from the fall

 

You cannot know

I cannot tell you

Without destroying a balance that existed days ago 

 

The cold is a constant reminder

of our promises 

Those I have inevitably broken 

 

I need your warmth

which supercharges something within me

 

I have done this to myself

Broken these ground rules we placed

I have betrayed you unwillingly 

 

You told me my heart would be broken

You told me and my heart broke 

But somewhere in the fall to wonderland

I lost the glue
