Exploding



My heart explodes
And it flashes from there
A nerve comes out
From a very distant pare

It screams, it shouts
It sings a song
With its horror and taste
It returns where it belongs

Exploding from tears
And whistling through air
It sees its dark side
A moment comes from there

It slowly gasp
And live through life
Trying its best
From danger and rife
