Contorted Heart

Too fiery breathing at point zero oh so it seems
baked I feel roasted my heart to blink once and out goes day
my knight and shining armour words bleed out of my mouth pouring like angry fumes of a festered wound
I ran a little too fast
I walked a little too slow
the ground knows me well
on it I lay me to count the passing of tear 
to water me a shoot of love
lay me down to sleep dangling in the mist of air
written "I was there....contorted heart"
I was there!!
