I Don'T Understand Why I Physically Must Die Poem-

I DON'T UNDERSTAND 
WHY I PHYSICALLY MUST DIE POEM
I don't understand why I must die
Why I must return to dirt, to dust
Why I must be missed just short of being convicted
Why people cry real tears in their eyes
But most of all
Why if not careful also must spiritually die (also)
Why must I regret if I don't repent
Why do I suffer worldly misfortune
What I understand most is
Why God and Jesus loves me
Why does He (they) forgive a wretch like me
