The Chasms of My Heart
My heart has chasms of phantoms
and their screams are echos in the beats of my heart
and their emotions pulsate with the rhythm of the dead
Distorting the thoughts inside of my brain
Insanity takes me away from the fathoms of who I am
and rational thoughts slip down the outside of my cup
and words can't descend far enough to catch the meaning of it all
Through this teardrop sea of irrationality
and I could only hope that my personality would split
Become fragmented through the chaos
Dismantle into pieces that my soul could handle
and give me peace of not knowing the other side of me
and be free to start all over from scratch
Where dreams are only a breath or two away
