Bulletproof

You spit words like projectiles
which shatter bone, pierce tissue
and become lodged within my heart.
This organ which transports
life sustaining blood begins to quiver
throwing my rhythm into V-fib
followed closely by asystole.
I hear someone in the distance
cry, “shock him, shock him.”
But this is no shockable rhythm
and as they thump on my chest
they swiftly go through the ABC’s.
With cords visualized the ET tube
is passed while holding cricoid pressure.
Rescue pod and Ambu bag are attached,
positive end-tidal CO2, adequate ventilation
IV access and epi pushed,
but inevitably they’ll call it.
My last thoughts are of you
as I finally realize I am bulletproof.
For your words can hurt me no more!

Hi,
An extremely unique way of expressing
'Lost love' - and you did it with some ''Style.''
Well written.
