shot in the head

I was shot in the head
everything went black
but there i was with my conscious
it was floating around me
it came and whispered in my ear
"get up surely i cannot be dead"
my body failed me
motionless i lay
my mother, i must think of my mother before i no longer can
how much i love her, yes if i think it she will know
there will be no guilt
she is the last thought to stream across
i was shot in the head
