Premature Future
  Realization
  I Realized the truth
  Synchronization
  My mind and heart too
  and my heart beats, beats, beats
  and my mind clicks, clicks, clicks
  and my soul weeps,weeps,weeps
  and the clock ticks, ticks, and ticks
  the time and mine flying away
  my fingers shift, my eyes open
  my body still, my lips frozen
  The shock shakes me, I cannot be relieved
  after realizing that which I do not wish to believe
  Footsteps closing in on me
  my heart beats more quickly
  echoing within my mind
  wondering why I had not seen the signs
  my eyes close slowly, my forehead cries
  from nervousness and so by surprise
  Feeling the presence of a premature one
  The one's aura of a time that should of had yet to begun
  And with the fearful un-shielding of frightened eyes
  a feeling of slight relief, great fear, and surprise
  because along with the un-shielding and in a gleam
  I awoke from my nightmarish dream
  Though being awake was as well as being asleep
  For, for the rest of the day my heart kept its leap
  My calm lips still cold and short in breadth
  and my slow eyes seemed to circumspect
  The world around was permanently morphed
  and my heart and soul similarly distort
  They say a bright future's yet to come
  Though ecstatic I feel it to be quite fearsome
