Notes About The Poem

No Escape From Reality

My life changed, a killer the sec I placed a gun to his head and pulled the trigger. Eyes wide open in horror then swallowed with a last breath his eyes grew dark,
 now dead.

A black hole opened underneath my feet and in the moment I felt the darkness.

My short-lived life, I sank to the floor stumbling over what I have thrown away.
I had to hold my breath and watch unfold tears flooding mama's eyes, 
“Please not my boy."

Certainly you understand my time has come I cannot remember all the details. He is dead. Is that not the only thing that matters and now, we must carry on?
