A girl in checkered gingham,
Cast as awkward and shy,
Gazed at the looking glass,
Remembering days gone by.
What became of Wonderland?
Where is her King of Hearts?
What to do with the memories,
Just before the panic starts?
Eyes of lamentation,
Silently scream of pain.
The Cheshire Cats still fading,
Their haunting grins remain.
Days of mis-adventure,
The perils and the thrills,
The beast beyond the looking glass
Eats the things it kills
Safe, this side of the mirror,
Time just seems to pass
To a girl gone mad as a hatter,
Afraid to break the glass.
