My Demise
A coolness runs thru me, I feel their presence.
I take a deep breath and pace on.
It's rather dark and I'm alone.
I hear someone behind me,
turn to look. Nothing there.
I fasten my pace.
A soft breath in my ear says,
"It's your turn."
Chill bumbs cover my body.
I run!
"Never!", I yell.
The demons appear in front of me,
I stop.
One steps towards me and says,
"It's your turn."
I lok upon them with dismay.
Could this be it? I'm done?
The demon points out to me and steps closer,
finger still extended.
I close my eyes in hopes this is only a dream.
Open them,
he's closer now, still stanced.
They all are, all of them!
one finger extended towards me
Suddenly he's inches away as he touches my face.
I fall to my knees
and sigh for the last time.
