Deadly Premonition
The reaper stops by
Knowing my fate
Knowing the end
Out of the corner of my eye
I spot him
I know what’s to come
I feel a wave of terror wash over
It can’t be my time
My time to die
He touches my shoulder
And I feel it
The cold taking over
A sudden vision
I see it
All of it
My life
It’s flashing
Yes, right before my darkening eyes
Then I see it
What had happened.
My death stares back at me
The mirror
It shows my life
It shows my death
I awaken
Drenched in sweat
Relieved it was only a dream
A dream?
A premonition?
What was to happen next?
