Have you ever wondered how a bullet does its damage?
How something so small can be so threatening?
The way it enters the body is not the same way it exits.
The entrance is small, insignificant even,
but then it burns everything inside and comes out leaving a big hole.
Just like you.
Straight in,
giving me no time to duck or hide,
making a mess inside
and leaving what will become a scar on your way out.
And that's just in case I make it out alive.
