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