Burn...

by Josh   Feb 16, 2007


Life-

Let's say you gave in to all the heartache and stress
And ended your life...you didn't feel blessed

Life was too much, you thought you couldn't cope
But you failed to realize... there is always hope

But unfortunately it's too late for that now
It's before the judgment seat of God you bow

He looks you in the eye, but you cannot hold his stare
As all of heaven watches to see how you fare

Every gift He gave you passes before your eyes
As you start to think...your life was one big lie

He asks "How could you be so ungrateful?"
Sure life was hard, but did you have to be so hateful?

All He wanted was for you to grab His hand
He would have saved you, but you turned and ran

Tears are streaming down your face
As the mallet hits its place

Your fate is set, as you weep and wail
The world fades, welcome to hell

Everything turns to a soul piercing black
As you realize it is all hope that you lack

You're falling and falling as you start to feel the flame
Burning and burning you realize this isn't a game

The pain is real and the pain is intense
For you this place was never meant

The horrors of hell I cannot put in words
But I have to try to deflect Satan's swords

The thoughts you think when your teeth are gnashing
Why didn't someone warn me, to save me of this thrashing

After the first thousand centuries of torment and pain
You think of that person...what was their name?

They knew the eternal truth, a truth they chose to hide
They could have saved you, but they stood to the side and lied

None of that matters now...it's too late for your soul
But if only that person had been a bit more bold?

I for one am willing to step up and warn this nation
Now you have to do your part of the equation

This world was bought at a very high cost
So there is always hope whenever you feel lost

You have two choices.
Live forever in life or live forever in death
Choose

    Look I started reading this poem and I understand what you are saying and I really like the way you choose your words. But seriously, it is so long, no one is going to read all that, I only got to the second part... poetry is seen more through short but meaningful poems, make it shorter, I bet it will attract more attention to both yourself and others.
    Good work though,
    oh and some of the words don't make sence just bescause they rythme.....
    "As all of heaven watches to see how you ->>>> fare??????? fare doesn't make sence with this sentence... lol
    it's okay I do it to,
    good work keep it up
