As silence reigns supreme,

Is this a nightmare or a dream?

Where darkness engulfs my sight,

I cry for some respite.

Sweet mercy is what I seek,

So,

No longer am I rendered weak.

You would think after all this time,

My mind would be accustomed to all this violence and crime.

Flashbacks of jogging under the moon,

I thought I was totally immune.

With my tall muscular frame,

Arrogantly untouchable I became.

Then from out of the mist,

A gun totting gang hissed.

Drug induced and victims of abuse,

They seek no reason or excuse.

Echoes of the triggered gun still haunt,

Where deafness and blindness does taunt.
