“I-I-I...I shot her...”

Got a call from the doctor
He had some amazing news for her
He just developed a cure
If she hurried over now, he'd try it out on her
Burst out the door, she was beaming
Among the raindrops her happy tears were streaming
Finally freed from her pain
But something else fell with the rain
A stray bullet shot by her father
Aimlessly nested inside her
She fell to the the sidewalk, now empty
Of the life which once christened her body
