Meeting My Fate?

It begins with a flash
Of white light from the west
Disoriented, I stumble
But I'm trying my best

Groans of torment gather 'round me
Rotted flesh scent is near
Gnashing of teeth, shuffling of feet
Are the only sounds I hear

Trying to move away
I stumble in my blind state
My face smacks hard against the earth
Sod is all I taste

Finally my eyes adjust
I pull my head up from the ground
My jaw drops open as I take in the scene
Ignoring the approaching sounds

Flames wrap around the mountains
Mountains made of bones
Children run screaming with tears in their eyes
Away from their ashen homes

A red river roars through the streets
Human remains float through
Slithering creatures gnaw on the flesh
Of those whom I once knew

Imps fly swiftly through the air
As they chase the massive crowd
Looming over the hellish scene
Is a man whom before they bow

They chant his name in sync
"LUCIFER" they shout
My heart races in my chest
And my sanity I doubt

I feel a set of teeth on my leg
Turning, I kick the beast
Its comrades surround its body
And begin their fresh feast

I avert my gaze from the conflict
And rise slowly to my feet
When I turn around, my spirit sinks
A sea of black eyes I meet

An army of souless faces
All lurch forward at His command
His booming laugh shakes my chest frame
As they march across the flaming land

Eyes growing wide with fear
My heart beat picks up speed
I try to run, but my feet refuse
My voice quietly pleads

As the multitude surrounds me
Each wearing a wicked grin
He screams "SEIZE" in a menacing voice
And I never see the light again

A sit straight up in a cold sweat
Breath trembling, in my bed
Tears well up in my grey eyes
It was only in my head...
