Forgive This Self-Firing Gunman.

vision blurring in a narrowing tunnel
ears tuning out the external voices
heartbeat slowing to the point of nearly stopped -

Please don't be angry with my choices
as I take this gun and with the bullet
my brain all over the place gets shot.

.....Forgive this self-firing Gunman

Why do these"self-firing-gunmen"
Raise their heads in you?
Why do such macabre thoughts plague you?
Why do you even have to think of death?
Why do these questions take possession of you?
I do not know, this depressive in you!

Or do I?

((((Hugs dear Lizzy, don't be so blue))))))

Love, xxx, Zoya
