There you are
How far?
Align the sights
Dim the lights
Don’t see me?
So slowly
Lift the barrel
Life’s in peril
Hands steady
Time is ready
Don’t make a noise
Hold your poise
Here’s your fate
Open up the gate
Caught off guard
From my regard
Am I you, or is this me you see?
All so suddenly
I look back; the barrel’s pointed at me!
How could this be?
Now I’m the one on the flee
Condescendingly
Why will you offer me no pity?
I pray this day is holy
Turned tables
Unknown fables
Prey is vanished
My soul banished
Was I so vulnerable?
Dishonorable?
You escaped safely
Forever free
