Have you ever wondered about the
After-
Life
Would it be worth enduring death?
Would it be worth leaving your loved ones?
Would it be a tragic escape?
Would you be living a life ofBlissful peace, where none
Suffer pain, stress, where
Everything is
Perfect
The sky is an ever
Sapphire, a shining diamond
And it is always green there, there is
No pollution, no destruction, no
Cage where you are restricted, entitled to
Only un-freedom
But
You are free to do your will
You can play all day
Work all day
Paint all day
Of the beauty that blossoms from nature
Pure bliss, unrestrained freedom.But, what if
You thought of the opposite.
What if you were a
Dirty liar
A cheat and thief
One who bullies just for the fun of it
A murderer
Innocents' blood stains your red hand
Then, would you be living a life ofHell.
Tongues of fire scorch your skin
The pain nearly overweening the
Grief
Sorrow
Scream for it is futile to escape
The consequences of your actions
Which burden you til after death
And
Despite your repentance
None forget, for no one forgets
Your crimes but only
YouBut who to decide the fate
Who to lay judgement
Upon all these souls
Longing
Yearning
For a place
To be rememberedLive life well
So that no regrets burden you as you
Descend
Down
Into
TheAfter
Life
