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?
