Enchanted

 
Let’s go down the rabbit hole together 
Till we end up in wonderland 
A utopia for our senses 
So alive 
We dance to the beat of our own drum 
We laugh till tears fall down our cheeks 
We love like ecstasy 

Let’s create paradise 
Is it juvenile to think about such fantasies?
Clocks stop ticking 
While I’m eternally slipping,  Falling 
In love with you 

Deep into the underbellies 
We dig down into the pits of our souls 
We dwell in the underworld 
And funnel through the tunnels of our thoughts 

Slowly sinking into the abyss 
Barely scraping the brink of madness

Seeping into our primitive selves 
We indulge in our deepest darkest 
Seduction of the senses.
We feel from the core 

We are bonded to the bone 
With you is what I call home 

Freedom to be 
It seems like destiny 
Your warm embrace 
Let’s continue to race 
down
The rabbit hole 

I trace my fingers down your chest 
My lips , pressed up against your neck 
My legs wrapped around you as our bodies collide 
we tumble and glide down the rabbit hole 
I grip you tightly for the ride 

We toss and turn 
We wrestle self-loathing 
Delving down our minds as we continue probing 
Let’s escape reality and discover the duality at heavens gate
Leaping through portals 
Elevating till we are no longer mortal
