Monologue of Mrs Johnstone - Inspired by the play and script 'Blood Brothers'

One shot.

It only took one shot,

then he faded away.

Bones weakening,

his heart stopping.

Life ending.

Mid-breath,

he came to rest.

The world around him disappeared.

 

Another shot,

from another gun,

From another blood.

He didn’t mean to shoot,

it wasn’t his fault.

He was fast act,

but too fast to think,

It all happened in a blink.
