Bull's Eye.

Pick up the bow.

You stare at me with those burning eyes,flashing dangerously like naked flames.
The kind that sents shivers down my spine.
There was nothing i can do.
Nothing i can say.
No.
Wait,
I could scream,i was dying to scream.
But being the coward immobilized by your glare,I didn't dare to.
So i just stood, feet rooted to the ground,
paralyzed.

Notch your arrow.

You open your mouth and delivered your lines.Words still echoing in my head.

Look ahead,Take position,Aim.

I listened to what you have to say,slowly,processing what i just heard.
In that split second,the hand on the clock stopped ticking,
the air surrounding me stopped circulating.
the blood pulsing in my veins just stopped in its tracks.

Release the arrow.

That was when i realised my throat was dry,my head was spinning,my tears were swelling up in my eyes,I didn't dare to blink,knowing they'll flow if i made any movement.

Bull's eye.
i died.
