As i wake from a seemingly endless nightmare my senses become intact and i realize that the world is dark, red streaks gash the skies like an open wound and trees are decorated with fire blowing turbently with the smell of ash and smoke trailing in the wind. From my window I witness judgement day.
Deer dash across the empty lot near my home leaving dust in the wind trying to get away.
Women and their children stand helplessly outside their home, wondering if they gave thanks to the important things in life incase the unthinkable happens.
Teenage guys lose their egotistical thoughts of what people think about them and scurr off in denial of what is actually going on.
The wise people stay passive wanting their time to come for maybe a glimmer of hope to come back a young person.
As I interlude into my thoughts a collage of old photos and moments of happiness that took place in my life packed together and remolded me; I was not scared of death.
Down the street from my house i see "her" approaching me, so luminous on a dark day, yet so dark she still remains, as my first worst and best love in the past...
I look into the eyes of the Devil that hunted my heart and devoured it ever so distastefully and embrace her, captivating her of all feeling for a moment.
My lips gently graze past her cheeks and land on her lips, so softly and tenderly i leave her a kiss goodbye.
I walk away with her eyes burning a hole in my back in astonishment of my victory, I smile and walk into the blinding white light where i live for eternity in peace.
