Duel

In the evening there are two guys 
Climbing up the top of two several hills 
Target on another with their pistols 
It’s a duel and only nature is the viewer 
Along with the setting sun and open sky. 
What will happen, who will die? 
Nature is waiting to see eagerly 
Probably it forgets to breathe, 
They target one another 
Keeping finger upon the trigger 
       One… 
                   Two…                                
                             Three… 
Both they fire together 
Closing their eyes 
What happened? Who died? 

Both they cry loudly, opening eyes 
‘d*mn! Mistake to load the gun 
Next day again, ok brother?' 
  
Since last week 
They tried to kill one another.
