Bullets

You know how f**ked up it was,
You're words we're like bullets from a gun.
Man made bullets, you filled with liquid nitrogen.
You shot me with each word.
(SHUT UP I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU WANT)
You emptied your clip out, caving in my chest and 
here I was thinking that you cared.

The crackling sounds echoed loud, 
I held in my pain, too shocked to say a word.
Watching your face, know emotion did it display.
Eyes turning a darker shade of black,
From all the hatred you wasn't holding back.

Inspired by a breakup. 2023
