this shattered hope

Bang!

A gunshot

Gush of blood from ten meters away

A friend has been hit

He did not look back

He ran faster

A great escape from a would-be ending

Heart pounding like drumroll

Rhythm too much audible it hurts

Could hardly breathe

Could hardly move

He may be next

For the first time in his entire life

He is scared

Faces of lifeless innocents

An everyday appetizer

Death

His source of life

He is a gunman

A notoriuos outlaw

He is a killer

Feared by lovers of life

Finally

A total defeaning silence

Sigh of relief

He is safe now

He remembers the first day he remembers

Empty stomach

Empty handed

Running past through speedy cars

Chasing life with the monsters of the streets

Begging to feed his hunger for existence

Curse the day he was born

A mindless victim of poverty

Undeserving heir of a wretched spirit

Gambling for deception over reality

He seeks for comfort

A little less help to unload his burdens

A lot came by

Offered to lift his load

All those misleading words

Broken promises for riches

From that day onwards

He trusts no one but himself

He ogten times argue with himself

To die in principle

Or live unjust

And he chose to live

Thus came out a ruthless slave of evil

He made no soft spot in his heart

He bathe himself in pure anger

Incapable of feeling guilt nor pity

The more he fought against the wicked forces

That stole his chance for change

The more he became one of them

Three minutes passed

He wakes up from a deep sleep

A horrible nightmare

He opens his eyes from a point of deception

He cleans his thoughts

He suddenly lost an air of survival

Inevitable death is right in front of him

A ruthless officer points a gun in his head

Flashes of unkowing victims came

Right there and then

The shining light of hope disappears

He looks up at the stars

Dark clouds cover the right light

The officer fires the gun

In a matter of seconds

He sees the hungle of death

He drifts into a state never to awake

He dies

He dies
