A Sad Future - Axl

A Sad Future - Axl

I laid about onto my bed
Day has ended, it would seem.
The eyes that surrounded my “X” shaped scar
Closed to show my dream.

I woke up in my fantasy
Inside a bright white room,
The room was empty, yet very clean
So clean, no need for a broom.

Yet everything seemed very strange
This dream felt very real.
I felt like I was trapped in my mind
And my mind has just been sealed.

Another figure then showed up
Then I said, “Wait a tick,
Who are you?” I asked, and he replied,
“I’m you, but as a maverick.”

I took out my pistols and aimed toward him
And yelled “Get out of me!”
He then just laughed and then replied,
“Not until you become me.”

He then ran toward me and punched me hard
Beat me up into the ground,
I tried to fight back with all my might
But the winner had him crowned.

I never knew that he would be
Such a hard enemy.
I never knew I would lose to
Myself; Axl; me.

He punched and kicked and shot and hit
Until my strength ran out,
But he spared me, which made no sense
He reached his limit? No, I doubt.

He then laid my back to his chest
And put a gun in my own hand.
He then said, “This’ll be hard for you
So I’ll help you, like football teams with bands.”

He took one hand to the top of my head
And tilted my head back a bit.
Then he put the end of the gun in my mouth
And made sure that it fit.

Maverick me said, “All you have to do
Is just pull the trigger.
Your mind will die, and then I’ll win,
And you become maverick.”

I couldn’t help but close my eyes
And let tears roll down my cheek.
He saw that happen and then said
“So you really are weak.”

I couldn’t believe this was happening
I felt fear in my weakened chest.
I wanted this to be a dream
I wanted to get rid of that pest.

He told me to hurry up
Before he shoots me instead.
I didn’t want to lose at all
But then he shot me in the head.

BAM! BAM! BAM! Was all I heard
My vision was dying.
I knew that this was the end for me
Plus he sure wasn’t lying…

I woke up from that horrible event
And was welcomed by a face.
I got off the bed and soon noticed
It was X at my place.

He looked at me and then said
“’Bout time you got out of bed.”
But all of the sudden, my hand held my gun
And then I shot him in the head.

He fell back and landed on the ground
And yelled “What is wrong with you?!”
I evilly said, “Just like Sigma,
I’m now a maverick too.”
