Biting the Bullet

Now I have to bite the bullet,
It flies at me,
Faster than the speed of light,
Yet slow enough to see its intention,
Its aiming to destroy who I am,
I bite down,
Trying to prevent it from doing what I fear most,
Yet still it prevails,
The sheer speed and power of the bullet
Rips right through my mask,
Piercing my flesh,
My mask falls to the ground and shatters,
My true being is exposed,
Blood runs down the cracks and crevices of my real face,
Everyone I have ever known stands and stares,
Horrified at the monster they see before them,
Now they all know why she chose
To exit stage left while she had the chance…

The bullet was forever aimed at me…
Yet avoiding it was never an option…
