I was in high spirits as I drove back home after a pleasant workday. It was a beautiful sunny day and had no idea that I was going to die that day.
I don't even know if the truck driver or I were to blame, for smashing into my driver's side at full speed.
The moment he hit my car neither of this questions mattered anymore, nothing mattered anymore. All my senses were so sharp and clear in that brief moment. Everything seemed to happen in extreme slow motion.
As the truck hit my car, I saw how the door bend slowly toward me.
I heard the metal scream and watched the window shatter.
I saw light refract in the glass shards forming tiny rainbows.
As all this glittering and screaming chaos crawled towards me, I had one last thought: 'Death shouldn't look this pretty.'
The moment I got hit there was no pain, but I knew my life was over...
Just a blink later, I felt something on my shoulder and got suddenly pulled away. Everything disappeared from one moment to the next and was replaced by a shimmering colorful void.
I wanted to scream, but I couldn't. I could not move either.
I wasn't even sure that I still existed.
Suddenly I heard a surprised sound from that thing and it lost it's grip on me, even after reaching out again to grab me it wasn't able to hold on to me. It's surprise turned into anger as I fell back and moved further and further away from it.
I lost any reference to time, maybe all of this had took years or the fraction of a second. I fell towards a shining light until I finally was enclosed by it.
Ok, interesting
It's rather short
Death is rare and it isn't pretty unless your on lsd! "Holy shit look, death is beautiful!" Say what?! Look guys I'm on lsd because death is beautiful! Ok enough lsd for you lol
well well well, it's rare that I read a note from the author on the first page and actually crack a smile
Perhaps whatever was grabbing him was Death/the grim reaper, and something has saved him from his soul being taken by the reaper or whatever it does.

That's pretty much what I had in mind.
