Chrysalis Poem by Tor Silvertongue

Chrysalis

My minds' got more bodies than graveyards,
Tears that fall like atom bombs
Why have the gods made life so hard?

Fractured lights glisten along the surface,
Mighty beams from the beauty of her soul
Trade one life for another,
have I earned it?

Her love is a wildfire,
Coursing harder than adrenaline
Inside veins grown icy with resentment.
Feathers born of ashes,
Her song like chimes in a windstorm,
Singing the beauty of the destruction.

Old life in shambles,
All it ever was.
Can't say I miss it,
Nothing but steel, cold, and concrete.
My fuel, her love.
My change, our Future.
