Bombshell

Slamming doors 

From the latch he said he would fix

She found the note that said 

"it wasn't your fault"

The windowsill it held 

One fingernail

Like a burning ember

Like a broken man

Like desperation

Like a bombshell

Like a flying bottle

Like a dropping star

Like the last bullet

Like a bombshell

He said her name as he fell

Shutting doors

Keeping in the shame

That won't die

She burns inside

She wakes up from the same nightmare

The scream that rips out

From her throat

Ike a burning ember

Like a broken man

Like desperation

Like a bombshell

Like a flying bottle

Like a dropping star

Like the last bullet

Like a bombshell
