What Awaits You After Death?

By Dark Starz

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Down in the pit of despair, Where am I? Total blackness, Everywhere I turn. Where does it all end? On and on and on, The pain and misery. Death. That's where it ends. Sweet oblivion, Is what He promises. No hope of salvation. Total damnation. What hope do you have? Sins that have been committed. Hell yawns before you. That slowly spinning void, Calling; Compelling you to jump in. Letting it wrap its cold, dark arms, Around you. Satan awaits before you, Your jury, judge, and executioner. Dropping to your knees, Awaiting your punishment, And ultimate fate.I was extremely depressed and suicidal when I wrote this one.
