The Heist

I walked in the bank - the black leather bag tucked tight beneath my arm. When I pulled that .45 I looked into the bankers eyes "Don't you dare pull that alarm" I screamed hit the floor" a woman screamed "please, help me lord" and I thought about you dear. If you knew I lost my job, and gambled what we've saved and lost would you understand all of my fears? For once in my life can I do this one thing right? Felt the pressure tight a weekend man, a weekend heist. A Saturday I'd not forget Uncle Sam this money jam you put me in Took a human life to pay the debt I didn't hear the guards outside, I heard a scream I turned surprised, felt the smoking pistol in my grip. The gun went off into the soft yellow tie that hung beside the banker's heart inside the banker's chest. Lived such a short life, i hope he'll be alright. For once in my life I feel so damned alive.
