I was in pain but now I'm okay
it was inevitable
somehow I ran away and ran towards it
I pushed and I pulled
stood still and moved
when my lips separated to speak the words I've always wanted to say
I knew and also didn't predict the push back to be so lethal
enough to make one's heart decay
tried to turn my head but my face said it all
you could see right through
it was bound to happen
what was said and what wasn't
stung like a getting snipped by a bullet
but healed as if all it needed was a bandage
I was in pain but surprisingly I'm okay
