Goodbye

Well, some of us do have that side of us which does not believe in "predictions". I mean, who wants to know what tomorrow holds? Yes, if it’s a positive thing, that’s something good but we do have a side which fears the negativity as well. Thus, the most preferable scenario is the simple fact of life - accept it as it comes.
But imagine a scenario where you do not wish to know the future but it comes before you without a choice.
Let me paint you a picture to make it clear. You may be least interested  in knowing what the future holds for you. Then all of a sudden, a picture is painted before you which says that you shall meet your end in the next few hours. Yes, had it been a prediction with respect to you cracking a lottery or winning a jackpot, it would have been a different scenario but this isn't a positive prediction. The picture painted has a darkness - the end, your end.
So, for all you know, the prediction may be wrong but we are humans after all. We have that 1% in our mind which thinks that the prophesy may be right, may not be a deceit. Well, who wishes to acknowledge negativity completely right?
But imagine, you are in that scenario, so, you see the clock tick its way towards the deadline. Yes, the hope is that its false and you do all that you can to stay distracted from it but that’s not possible right? I mean, knowing your end is approaching, you can't sit down and watch GOT for God's sake!!
What do you do?
Firstly, you hope that the prediction is wrong and secondly, you consider the fact of the prediction being right which leads to you thinking that what mistakes have you done so far and what is it that you would like to change from your past were you given a chance to rectify it.
All that you are left with from here till the deadline approaches  are memories - both positive and negative that have been a part of your life and have been in one way or another a lesson towards you shaping your life to where you stand today.
This feeling was experienced a while back and well, luckily, the prophesy turned out to be false and this resulted in the birth of a set of lyrics - "Goodbye".
An extract from the same is given below:

"A voice screamed this was the end
The last words ring through the mind
The time from there seemed to stop
I fear this may be a goodbye
Trying to see what's left to  do,
Remembering all that’s left behind,
A memory binds itself to me,
The fear this may be a goodbye "
