Syringe

"It runs in the family"
"You were born with it to happen"
"It is genetic"
"It can't be stopped from happening"
That's what they say
Yet, they still seem to scream,
"YOU were close to them when they died"
"YOU were too young to help their pain"
"YOU see, it was their time to go"
"YOU should never give up like they did"
Why, why am I suddenly the target.
It's not my gun,
I didn't force the poison,
I didn't...
Yes...
I was the gun,
I was the poison,
I was the infection,
I was...
