Cheshire Cat

I will be your Cheshire cat

I’m not even sure what I mean by that

As you might’ve noticed I’m not all here

I might occasionally disappear

I cannot claim to be un-insane

I can only assure you in color I lay

In your arms like branches

My smile won’t fade

I may talk gibberish

In riddles and rhymes

I may make little sense

From time to time

I may tell you you’re just like me

Something screwy in your head too

Don’t take offense it’s not to offend

Your strangeness is why I adore you

I’m done with my tea

I want out of this place

No, in love in this wonderland

I think I might stay

Oh but the scenes are so frightening

I feel so misplaced

In love in this wonderland

Forever I’ll stay

I will be your Cheshire cat

I’m starting to know what I mean by that

I’ll sit lovingly in your lap

Head first then feet I fell in this wonderland nap

You’re free to roam and sip the tea too

No need clinging to my tail like a lovestruck pup

Playing cat and mouse is pointless at this point

Are my pretty punny puns cheering you up?

I may fade from day to day

In and out my mind will drift

Like a sailboat knotted loosely to a dock

Our conversations may rift

Just know that I’m silently here

Wondering, pondering, daydreaming deeply

You can bring me back if go Cheshire cat

Just say my name and I wonder back sheepishly 

I’m done with my tea

I want out of this place

No, in love in this wonderland

I think I might stay

Oh but the scenes are so frightening

I feel so misplaced

In love in this wonderland

Forever I’ll stay

I will be your Cheshire cat

I think you might know what I mean by that

Your over-the-top top hat

Your under-the-sheets acrobat

In love in this wonderland

Forever I’ll stay 

As your Cheshire cat

Forever I'll stay
