Can you keep a secret? (Poem) [Halloween 2015]

Can you keep a secret between you and I?
I happen to know the exact day you will die

Just breathe
Calm down
Be relaxed

(Who am I?)

Is what I always hear asked
This is the answer you see
I am you from the future
We are me

What is this voice inside of my head?
I thought you would have figured it out by now
You're dead

Manipulated living
Manipulated dead
I am only the voice inside of your head

Whilst reading these words that I have penned
You'll begin being my servant somewhere towards the end

Almost devine
Oh so wise
Your actions influenced from behind other human eyes
Watching you live in self doubt and fear

(God)

It makes me smile when you shed a tear
Now for that secret I promised to tell
We began at The End
This world is Hell

Everyone died
It's a matter of when
It should be obvious now
That this "I" is not your friend

So do your best to live these final moments in sorrow
I came today to tell you that it happens tomorrow

You were given nothing but chance after chance friend
This life is one you were afraid to ever dance in

Leaving so much dust on its floors
I tried to open so many doors

Until you gave in deciding to surrender
Then begged me to make you never remember

You've now been granted just what you wanted
You'll be playing the victim

Becoming one of those haunted

Oh, that is creepy in a really uncomfortable way (the best kind of creepy ).

Can't believe I missed it before - S&F

I was definitely going for an uncomfortable "vibe", thanks for picking up on it.
