Premonition

To this day,
I don't know why,
but I can see the future,
I can see past the mind.
It's not hard,
As it takes concentration,
It's easy to see,
But it lacks motivation.
It got me into trouble once,
I'll never do that again,
I'll never use it for evil,
It is not a favored trend.
I once met a scientist,
He tried to take me in,
But I used my powers for evasion,
And I slid by like a pin.
That’s why I don't like my powers,
My mind is always a contradiction,
I may call it annoying,
But some may call it,
Premonition.
