i take aim for the treasures in my
chest
like it'll steal the thoughts from the heads of these lions
from when you kept wandering about with
that lose ache in your hands
(i watched you trip and lose yourself before, my friend)
and i know you envy of the time in
my lungs and organs while they sleep fitfully
thumping harsh words in my chest
releasing vile rhythms i can't let
loose
while i tell you you've changed, you thunk about
noiselessly in my head
and i set things on fire once again.
