Tear this ribcage open,
strip me down to my flaws,
because it is here
you'll find the heart of me,
an arrhythmic beat
without pause;
I'm a lifelong contradiction,
a paradox with
frayed memories,
and you can't expect me
to forget
when the recollections never cease;
yet there will always
be tomorrow,
another chance to start again,
when I can capture
these elusive feelings
and eradicate this
emotional pain.
