The Journey Beyond

Just in a twinkle of an eye A shining star goes off the sky Before liniment could get to the aching sore The transition is made through the exit door Faster than the drop of rain from the cloud The bell of judgment rings aloud The sky goes blue And the journey of life goes into review Going from light to dark Leaving behind a distinguish mark Flashes of timeline and memories That of happiness and those of miseries Starting from the first seconds at birth To the very last minute on earth From every action To it opposite reaction From every drop of tears shed To every strain of pain beared From numerous evil that was suffered To the few good that was whole heartedly offered It goes on and on and on Round every deed done under the sun Bringing to a climax a journey of self discovery A fairy tale of soul recovery It sure will come at an unpredicted time That unknown seconds which hunts us through our life time The hour that expires on the body the garment of flesh And an immortal life starts afresh Accounting for every deed done in the land of the living How we all carried out all our lives bidding Every lies that was told To every truth that was withhold From our given abilities To the way we best carry out our responsibilities So ask yourself my friend Where will you gonna end On the side of the truth Or those that will face his wrath Is it going to be a jolly ride home Or wishes and regrets in a tome The choice is us to make And the path is us to take
