Chest X-Ray

Between the layers of brick and mortar
My heart beats with such melancholy
Shadows of doubt sap at my strength
As I burrow in the warmth of this memory

It is easy to see the sadness in my eyes
As the stench of pain surrounds me
Its darkness threatens to creep inside
Between these layers it seeps slowly

Descending into a new hopelessness
My heart beats your sad melody
Consuming whatever I have left
As as I fall into our last memory
