Liquid Chemical Compound In My Face

I rolled my finger around in my cheeks 
it was some kind of liquid 
deliver there by a unseen evil dirty needle  
I should have freaked the hell out  
but I was in mind bending shock
definitely destroyed 
saying to myself 
don't be destroyed, don't be destroyed
DON'T BE DESTROYED 
do your crying on the inside
be in devastation quite quietly  
don't let them hear you cry
well that may be to late  
the cheek puddle get smaller and smaller  
each day, but I can still see the needle marks 
and the left side of my face is swollen like 
like i have a sugary premature cavity

when did this take place i can not say 
where did this happen i so do not, not know  
only want it to stop, and if not 
then just to warn the young...
