Hereafter

HEREAFTER


Hereafter,
What are you?
Are you a friend or a foe?
The end or the beginning? 
A blessing or a curse ? 
Fear or intrepidity? 
Rapture or despair?
Damned or holy?

No matter what your
Nature is,
Ready I would be for you, when the 
Time will draw near,
Effort to sooner come to you 
Is out of the way
But
Neither I, like a coward, endeavor to 
Fly away, 
Here I will make my stand, waiting your
 Appearance
Challenging your dominion 
As you are getting near
Thus
Till my last breath I will 
Oppose you
And
Down I will go fighting 
Never 
Asking you for mercy!
