My Death

byTheShadowSeesAll©

Have you ever had a dream that you thought was totally real,
Did it seem like you were asleep but instead everything in it you could feel?

Today I had that dream a dream where I felt myself die,
Its as if I slept with my eyes open so I would not think it all to be a lie.

It all happened in the town where I have lived all of my life,
A wonderful town where the future me would be someones wife.

But instead my spirit, my soul watched my body slip away,
All from a second floor window I stood and watched night turn into day.

I was in my uniform all freshly pressed and dressed,
There were many others with me but the only ignored my distress.

With my hands in my pockets I watched the scene unfold in front of my eyes,
The light was green but I was very wrong much to my surprise.

I wanted to turn left but my car decided which way it wanted to go,
I started to go straight faster and faster but the damn thing didn't want to slow.

I'm hitting the break as hard as I possibly can,
But all I can do is scream as I crash into the oncoming van.

But now I'm back standing at the window shock plastered on my face,
I try to tell the people in the room but they only leave me alone in this god forsaken place.

Within my body deep down inside my veins,
I feel the metal crumple the collision of two oncoming trains.

I watch in horror as the blood starts to seep from places that were once whole,
But the trauma of watching myself die has begun to takes it toll.

I blink my eyes once but it seems like a day has already went by,
But wait I can see people below, by the cars they have tears falling from their eyes.

They hug each other giving words of comfort even though they do no good,
I blink my eyes again but there are only graves were once my people silently stood.

I feel myself begin to fade to disappear with the rise of the morning sun,
I begin to back away from the window, feel my soul begin to run.

Coldness begins to replace what once I knew to be warm.
The skies begin to blacken my bones can feel the oncoming storm.

I begin to fade away from the window, the people a million miles away,
The next thing I am being awaken a scream the only thing I have to say.
