…On The Trigger
July 13th, 2008
Your hand on my throat
My hand on the gun
My finger on the trigger
Pointed at me.
Your eyes in my heart
My heart in your heart
My tears on my cheek
Your tears on the floor
Standing next to me
As you let go of my throat
Your eyes leave my heart
My heart leaves yours
My hand off the gun
but my finger pulls the trigger.
