Fate's Fickle Fortune

I took the longer trail,
out of the city.
Lady luck is out now,
such a pity

Not but a hundred feet ahead,
a building I approached,
when from the windows,
men appeared and poached.

Shots rang out threw the air,
then major pains in my chest.
Turns out I'd been shot a bunch,
my failing of nature's big test.

Is this the end of me?
Did I go into the light?
Or will I arise an undead,
to torment the night?
