When Life Flashes In Front of Your Eyes

When life flashes in front of my eyes, I see meadows full of golden wheat, and rosy pink flowers.

When life flashes in front of my eyes, I see myself reading, undisturbed, for hours.

When life flashes in front of my eyes, I see a grandfather clock, it's golden centre hitting the polished wood.

When life flashes in front of my eyes, I see the pearly white snowflakes gather on the ground, as I smiled, and tightened my hood.

When life flashes in front of my eyes, I see crackers being pulled, and the smell of roast turkey filling my nose.

When life flashes in front of my eyes, I see buds poking out of the grass, and a single rose.

Everything is black.
