Endings


who told you

death was the ending?


it's just the beginning

to your worst nightmare


only, it won't be

an illusion but

your reality


when your tomb becomes

your enemy;

a mother's hug

it won't be


when your intercostals

it will squeeze;

everyone deaf

to your screams


even the angels

will ignore

your pleads for mercy


when the fire of hell

cooks your flesh

when you long for

one more breath


who will you turn to?


it'll be too late

i hate to say


so

turn to him

before you return to him
