"Bang Bang"
you shot me down
"Bang Bang:" again and again.
Stop pulling me to my feet, only to shoot me to the ground again, please.
I'm standing right now; dreading that sound
[Bang Bang]
of rejection.
If you shoot me down, that injection of fear, loss of self-worth, and the delay of my birth
Will not be admitted by me.
You are still mine.
And I've always been yours.

Hmmm - I read the parent piece to this one a bit earlier this morning & mentioned that it needed to be trimmed. You took a spectacular part & allowed it to stand on its own merit. Nice job! I believe you have a fairly good chance of placing in the contest.
Kudos to you! -
