“Guard this with your life, understand?”

I swear I uttered those words.

The warning.

Because you held the gun…

And I know that you know,

It was loaded.

The clip not missing a single bullet…

The warning laid across my shirt,

My chest,

My heart…

Yet still you unloaded it.

Slowly,

And then all at once.

Shot STRAIGHT through me…

No mercy.

Every bullet knicking away a piece of my soul…

That I beared to you.

Fully.

Finally allowing myself to be me.

It was freeing.

Until you killed me.

And I became something else.

Someone else.

And I’m not quite sure…

If this girl I’ve become

Is better

Or worse.
