Chaos Poem by Amanda Larsen

My body's fake
I send it out, purposed to break
The smoke that poured out of my lungs
was dizzying the time I didn't want to run

Inside the chaos you were looking for my soul
I didn't tell you it had already been sold
I gave it for a penny in the pleasures pain
I wanted you to taste the bitter in my name

There was a song that I was singing in the dark
The only mark
on virgin ground
was the remains of the most melancholic sound

I tried to cry
but I was thirsty for the sparkle in my eye

You broke my lungs
They say that nothing can be deadlier than tongues
And I was wondering what freedom meant to you
I see the magic in the core of what you do

Afraid to break the glass that's making us complete
I silenced down the words my heart wanted to speak
Breaking the promises and hoping I could hide
from the only one that sees the chaos in my mind

Instability inside
I need the mess we never tried
I need a poets crazy life
And I fit perfectly
between the blades of every knife.
