Eternal Regret
He had tried every avenue, and yet he still ended up lost
He could never decipher what was true which had a cost
But he never peered in but instead he would look away
So he continued to sin having never learned how to pray
He had heard many others speak about this God in the sky
And how we were weak and only Jesus is able to get us by
But he would instantly turn away in continuing upon his path
He knew in the end they would say you will face God‘s wrath
He even had friends of such some know a little more than others
But all of them with the same touch loving your sisters and brothers
But such advice he would ignore tossing all others had said far aside
Not knowing what was in store all of it still hidden because of his pride
His parents long since stop trying they both passed nearly a year apart
He tried to pray when they were dying, he just couldn’t seem to start
Now he has passed away his body buried next to his parents graves
And on that final judgment day sadly he will realize only Jesus saves
