A Sinner's Thoughts
What if I were like,
The beautiful birds in the sky,
Able to spread wings taking flight,
High above while time passes by,
Such feelings I should enjoy one day,
When the life inside begins to fade,
Will my soul ascend into the Heavens?
Or am I damned to Hell for all eons?
Will I see faces of those long since passed?
Or am I destined to be cleansed of memories of the past,
Unable to remember the days of old,
No memories of friends, family, or of home?
I have awful feelings when thinking of death,
For I have cursed the Lord under my breath,
Asking why things happened the way they did,
And denying his power, I've lost faith in Him.
Heaven?
Hell?
Am I still worthy in the eyes of God?
