Fleeting Moments

Have you ever wondered what life after death is like?

Or if there is even a heaven or a hell?

Or is it just a figment of our imagination?

All the stories of God we are told

Are they even true?

As I lie here

In the midst of chaos

It feels like years, although it was mere moments...

It wasnt like this all came sudden to me

We all are meant to die someday

As death is inevitable

Just some die quicker than anticipated.

I was aware that I would die someday

But I didnt think it would end this way

I tried to move my pounding head,

Move my fingers even the slightest,

And my legs, just a little...

But it was of no use

Nothing changed.

I lay there helplessly,

Yet smiling

As I enjoyed my fleeting moments of life.

Although I had done this several times before,

I had never succeeded,

But now as my eyes grew too tired,

My breathing slowed,

And it hurt to smile...

I knew,

I knew that this time

I had finally achieved the ultimate happiness.
