One Shot, That's It. By: Naurwen

'Just one shot.' He says to me,

But how can I be sure?

I tremble as I hold my gun,

I take aim.

How can I harm her?

The lady I once called 'Matron'?

She loved me,

She cared for me,

'I can't do it' I say, shaking.

'Please . . .'

'I can't do it, damn it!'

Why can't he see?

She cared for him, too!

' I don't care if you miss . . .'

A miss . . .

I waited for her to see me,

I shot.

I miss.

I smile.
