It was the click of the gun cocking,

That set me off.

Aimed eerily close to my temple

The finger slipped around the trigger.

I wasn't scared of it going off,

I was scared that it wouldn't.

I knew it was full, and loaded

Each bullet engraved specially with my name,

Except theirs...

I thought they were behind me.

I thought they would go wherever I would.

But that was naive of me.

That was selfish of me.

Little did I know, They were holding the glock.

Too scared of their friend whos too alike to a grenade without a pin.

Awaiting the explosion- the anxiety.

To worried that even one small move...

Will end with a BOOM.

Decorated in shades of green, they will disappear into the forest

I am lost in. Goodbye my friends...

Left behind on this trail,

Lifeless, Cold, and unseen.

Unseen.

Unseen
