Invisible

Invisible

I could be invisible
Inaudible
Unthinkable

You can be invincible
Incredible
Unstoppable

We could have been inseparable
Irreplaceable
Unbelievable

But instead you can see
All of my flaws
You can hear me choking
In your talon claws

I won’t have the mercy
Of being set free
From the boiling hatred
Inside your memory

I try to run,
but I know I can’t hide
“Your time is near!”
The eerie wind cried

I see the glimmer
Of your shiny curved axe
I squeeze my eyes shut
And try to relax

After a moment’s time
I don’t feel an impact
So I peek through my lashes
That’s strange, it’s all pitch black..

I try calling for help
But I don’t hear a sound
My voice doesn’t seem to work
And there’s no one around

Falling to the ground
I hear a sudden clammer
I slowly turn to see
That shiny hooked hammer

And then it dawned on me
For I’m not a heavy sleeper
I was wide awake
And the world’s newest reaper.
