Dreaming of My Fate

I once had a dream
or was it a premonition

In it i saw two beings
one good
one evil

in the eyes of the evil one
I saw my fate
A horrible cruel existence
Beyond rust like black gates

A river of fire 
within it many souls
their screams never cease
So continue their mournful woes

I saw myself burning
screaming,bleeding,crying
Such suffering no words can describe
Torment never ending

In the eyes of the good one
i saw my fate
A joyful conclusion
Beyond this paradise's gates

A palace of clouds
within it many people
Their laughter is like music
In this world exist no evil

I saw myself laughing
My soul at peace
Such joy i can't put into words
Happiness does not cease

What is my fate
I saw the two sides
Which one do i get
When the flesh dies

I'll know someday
When my time arrives
