Dark place Quote by Anonymous
“Welcome to wonderland, they whisper as she swallows every last pill with a smile on her face. Where reality transitions into a fairytale. A fantasy. Her place to getaway. Where the darkness changes to light and the scars fade away. Welcome to wonderland, they say as she takes drink after drink from the bottle and she slowly leaves her past behind. Drink after drink the sad memories are torn to pieces and slip away like sand. The battle slowly calms as her body goes numb. Her place to getaway. Her fantasy. Welcome to wonderland they scream as she sits in her dark place.. Her nightmare. All her thoughts take over and she's left an empty shell. Her screams are only heard as soft whispers and her fake smile is starting to show the sadness that builds up inside. Welcome to wonderland. We're all mad here.”
