I'm Ready
Evil, all around us, but we are too foolish to know
I can see evil, and I am alone
Three nights it came and stood still as stone
that stare and red glare, could be felt to the bone
With little place to go, for a forest hugs my home
A widow am I, children gone....just alone
I fear it is death, for I’m turning ninety five
and have seen many wonders, and feel like Ive lived my life
but I am too scared, for what does it want
could it be a hidden a angel....or a dark angel... on the hunt
three days I’ve been nervous, on the edge of my seat
this fear has me breathless, so much, my hearts skips a beats
I feel him getting closer, day one was just those eyes
but day three, hes on my porch and he shows a shadowy outline
I hear three loud bangs, from downstairs on the door
I run to the bedroom, keeping close to the floor
bangs turn to thunder
thunder became silent
I could tell he was in, because my heart began dying
my vision began to blacken, and my body became numb
I fell to the floor, for I did all I could
I woke over time... to a very young man
handsome features and a very firm hand
Fredrick! my dead husband, a bright aura glows behind him
Told me to let go and it was time to come join him
As I reached out a hand, I gasp at what I see
but a beautiful left hand, and it belonged to me
I cried joy in the mirror, I looked twenty five again
and no longer feared that shadow....as we began to float... hand in hand.

A widow fears a shadowy being that gets closer to her home night by night, she suffers a heart attack from all the excitement, for it was her time, and her husband is the messenger sent to welcome her to heaven, One of the more touching pieces of work of mine, I hope you guys enjoy, It seems a bit short.
