confinement

'Falling down the rabbit hole' is known best as a figure of speech but Alice wasn't just a fictional character. Alice is real and she tried to seek solace in her darkest hour by chasing the moment as it slips away.

Like Alice, my mind ticks to chase the next layer of darkness that lies within your soul. Let's make a deal, you can bring your poisoned cakes and purple creatures and I'll invite myself to hit this rock bottom gladly.

I don't know how many shadows I've wrestled with in my way from there to you but it should last me for three lives and half a decade.

Being protected from the dark won't necessarily guarantee safety, it could mean a stale confinement with no exit doors and endless hallway.

but goddamn it, you're worth the fall.
