Shots fired
Into the sky.
Bullets returning
Where will I hide?
I run
Sprinting through the streets
See how far I've come?
From the blood in the sheets?
I hide for a time
My ending prolonged
I met you
My fear is now gone.
Shots fired
Into the sky.
Bullets returning
Where can I hide?
No!
I'll fight!
I pull the trigger
The bullets bite.
Blood is spilled
Innocents killed.
We flee, you and I
I find the car, and you can drive.
'I won't run anymore
I'm tired of fighting.'
'I understand.
We will go back into hiding.'
'No my love,
The ending is near.'
I feel it then,
The beginnings of fear.
Our story is over
There is a curve approaching.
The steering wheel doesn't move
And she showed no indications of slowing.
