Xenomorph

It starts in the chest
Unexplained a pain wants out
Cannot repress it

But once the worm leaves
Your own composure be damned
We will all know it

Your secret kept in
Gestating until no more
Ready to outburst

But wait there is more
As the secret squirms away
No it is not over

The ugly truth grows
Hideous despised but where
For it stalks and eats

We want to kill it
Well before it kills us all–
Love starts as a pain

That seeks expression
Which tears the lover apart
Runaway monster
