the rabbit hole

By: Radhika Shah

and now im scared
	
    for the memories get fuzzy and blurry

	
and my life slowly fades away
	
     im getting older and older
	
	while my memory is getting weaker and weaker

	
echoes of how life was
	
     before the fateful twist
	
threw us all into a rabbit hole

	
i always worry about the stars exploding
	
     being sucked inside a black hole
	
	but now all i fear is loss

	
the pictures swirl around
	
     and i try to map how it was
	
	but it soon turns into a labyrinth

	
whered all the time go
	
     it feels like it was ages ago
	
	but it hasnt even been a mere decade

	
or maybe it has
	
     and the gears inside my brain need fixing
	
	but even a broken clock is right at least twice a day

	
sleepless nights turn into fretful thoughts

	
and theyre all about you
	
     the peace i never made

	
the very place where a piece of my soul resides

	
but now its split into two
	
     one in the old and one in the new

	
and im
	
falling
	
     down 		down
	
           the		down
	
               rabbit		down
	
                          h
	
                      l       o
	
                          e


	
or was it a downward spiral
