The night wind howls
As the cold winter air
Chills my bones,
Pain antaganizes my legs
As i push my way through
This heavy snow,
i finally center myself on
A hillside
While grabbing a tree
I look down below,
There in the distance I see
A man
In the moonlights glow,
Many things race through
My mind in that instance,
Who is he?
What does he want?
Why does he not say a word,
I slowly come back to my
Senses
And claw my way to the top
Where I feel more secure,
He seems to gain speed,
More so than I,
I stop and watch in disbelief,
Fear has taken me off course
I think I've gone awry,
Stumbling over my feet
I feel my heart racing and
My breathing is getting
shallow,
I fall to the ground not sure
What to expect
I turn up and see a shadow,
There he is!
There is nowhere I can go,
He kneels down to me
And whispers
I am the angel of death
I've come to take your
Soul.
