Down the Rabbit Hole

I wake up every morning
Smile cemented to my face
Yet as always it evaporates
When I realize I am awake

Then I take my pills and brush my teeth
Applying cleanser to my face
Glancing in the mirror
Seeing nothing but vacant space

Eyes perpetually tired from the night before
The anticipation, keeps me awake
For I know I will see you soon
In that languid garden, we call our secret place

Where the champagne flows like Rivers 
in the heart of Utter Pradesh
And the oysters dance upon our feet
Vying for their chance

And the Acrid smoke of Fronto Leaves
Are smoke signals to enchant
For you and I my love,
Naked and alone on this barren beach we’ll prance 

Moonlight our source of incandescence
Your pheromones imbibe me like strong drink
Take my hand and lock eyes with mine
Allow me to survey your face unique
 
A face to launch a million vessels
That face that makes me weep
A face that a man can only charter
Yet can never own complete

A face so perfectly shaped
Its creator executed for its design
A face that has stolen my heart
A face for which I will forever pine

The rainbows in our world shimmer neon
As I lean to kiss your flawless face
Engulfed by my love’s embrace
Down the Rabbit Hole I’m chased
