The Chaos in my Heart
My heart is but the breaking waves
of an angry ocean in motion
It beats at a rate faster than most
riddled with pain from a lifetime of angst
The chambers take turn churning thick blood
poisoned by memories of what is dark and decayed
The chaos within pounds my chest
and I scream for peace and relief from punishment
Come here and feel my pulse
see the evil that resides within
For the truth can one day spill from my lips
but will forever remain pounding in my heart
