Promise Guaranteed
By: Jannah
Your life flashed before your eyes
So quickly as
Each stage of your life passes by
So swiftly and
The loved ones you'll leave behind
Linger like lint
In your mind
Along with those who you've sent
your anger to
You think about how you never got to apologize
It's too late
You're seconds away from your demise
This was and is your fate
The clock is ticking
Gun is pressed to your temple ready
There's no time to be memory picking
Keep your mind steady
On God
You begin to testify
Hoping to purify
Your soul
You praise God out loud
as if you were speaking to a crowd
Fear captivates your captor
It grabs at them like some sort of raptor
The trigger is pulled
Blood splatters
The night has cooled
The coward scatters
This was decreed
Promise guaranteed....
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Death is the guaranteed promise...
Give me your thoughts and don't forget to vote!
