When you stand there,
Trying to keep still,
No matter how much you try, you will start shaking.
Rocking back and forth, with your mind focused.

Sometimes, the focus fades away, and the ritual is broken.
If it doesn't, you still try relax but also control all muscles,
As no sudden moves are allowed.

Slowly, you start to decide.
When to pull the trigger,
Is it now? No?

Wait. You are now jerking.
Start over. Decide. Slowly.
When you feel the time is right,
You slowly start to pull the trigger.

You are tired. 2 options.
Put down the gun and relax,
Or carry on and try.
You decided to carry on.

Then at the last millisecond, you jerk.
Too late. The shot has been fired.
What is meant to be a bullseye, is now a disappointment.

And you regret deciding not putting down the gun to relax,
You regret choosing that second to shoot.

Decisions in life are not easy. Even for the little stuff.
But in life, there's more shots than one.

::If you miss one, try again::
