Not Alice

Not Alice

A Poem by Silent Heart
"

Inspired by one of my favorite books.

"
I followed you
into the hole.
Falling, falling
all alone.

You were the rabbit
always rushing
someplace else.

And like the 
Queen of Hearts
always caring only
about yourself.

Why am i supposed
to be Alice ?
Always chasing 
after you.

If all you do is
run and run,
and steal the hearts
of many more.

I'm sorry but I'm tired.
I'm not your Alice anymore.

I like the Alice through the looking glass metaphor - I could definitely see the line "I'm not your Alice anymore." as a great rock or country song title with all that it implies.
Alice learned a lot about herself down the rabbit hole Tannia and you are too judging by this writing - perhaps you are in the rabbit hole of your own Lifetime.
Good work.

I loved all the little things that aren't said but implied, especially the chasing after love idea. I think you worked in the 'Alice in Wonderland' elements really well so that it adds a lot more.

I really love this, the comparison between love and Alice in Wonderland is phenomenal. Genius and nicely penned!
