Chestburster

by @dev

Buried in 'maybe' A throbbing heart toils for a throbbing mind, Heart beating on its cage of rib - It's only a matter of time Ready to bust out of that joint Make a run for it and Breakaway Worked like a slave, Your blood-pumping knave Tired, shifty-eyed & opaque Make no mistake: It'll burst straight thru your chest Go running off right before your dead eyes And you'll never see it again.

A warning from weary hearts. Don't cross them.
