I toss and turn as my demons begin to stir. The scratching begins again and another sleepless night. Another dreamless night I shiver as my world grows dark and the sinister wind blows by my window. The cold hands of fear clutching at my throat. The noise growing louder ,with every beating second. He stalks me from behind my closed door. I can hear the dry cackle as he feeds off my fear while I hide beneath my covers, hoping to hide where it will keep my dreams safe. Swaying in the breeze is the thing hung so high. High up in the trees, As I look up at the thing in the trees. I drink from a cup, as it looks at me. The thing was so high, I started to smile with glee, As it hangs there. The body was so high I heard a prayer, as it looked at me. Swaying in the breeze I stand by the sea. As I walk away from the body starting to sway, I start to hear a scratch and it was louder than ever. You dream, you wake up, you live, and you die. Death is so easy, yet we fully don’t understand it, but we accept it. Seems like being dead is easier than living. But truthfully death scares us to the point where we have to face it one day and then the truth will be reveal to where we end up. Some think we will go to either Heaven or Hell. That’s rational thinking that was taught to us generations ago by our slave masters that stripped us of our Golden Crowns where we ruled the world once. Truthfully all races on earth were once slaves to some different race. But everyone dies but yet I’m here to tell you that you can control your own fate. Whether you choose to die or choose to live in the moment in this realm we call life. That will be how your life is shaped. Live life without fear of facing your demons, because you will have to face them one day. Just know death is not the end unless you let it be.
