The Blue Soul

Here I am in the place of my fitting, tracing this life I'LL soon be quitting! Dwelling in a world truly of hell, with feelings so blue one couldn't tell! So be it right or be it wrong, I sing tonight my saddest song, of this world I don't belong, Love so weak hate so strong! The hour draws near to my final breath, I look and smile at the face of death! But if I die what will be? another hell eternally upon me!!? By Darrell Bechtler (C) 2016

so you better not GO THERE. (to the great beyond, my friend) Enjoy life as long as you can and hopefully you can enjoy it. WE have no idea really what awaits us. I like to think it won't be as bad as some think!!

Andrea thank you for your comments on the blue soul, but just for the record I was writing not about myself because I have felt depressed before yet never this bad. I was writing about those who are in this state, and also the age old debate on the religion issue concerning suicide. To tell you the truth I am still not sure on this debate my self Andrea since the bible does not say other wise yet I really don't see a person like Hitler, and those like him being rewarded by God.
