One Year From Today

Last night I had a very real dream
An enchanting angel came to me
She said you will be in the world for one more year
All 365 days should be lived without fear

I will return for you one year from today
As I started to wake she slipped away
Now that I know when to expect the reaper
I embrace the pool of life and dive much deeper

I will keep the dream a secret, they won't understand
Why I was shown what death has planned
Wasted existence but now this is my chance
To choose life, to love, to laugh and to dance

Set free all the words I kept locked inside
Rescue the emotions I suppressed and denied
So clear now I have lived and feared in vain
I take back the power from my emotional pain

One year later and I have found inner peace
Tonight the angel comes for my souls release
It is my dying day and I am not even afraid
I find a friend in death, I have already been saved.
