Illusion

Today is the day 
The day I die 
To go to heaven 
Where angels lie

Sleeping away an eternity, 
While I stand here wondering 
Why am I in such a great place 
When I killed someone with no face

Did god forgive me? 
I think not
Maybe this is-let me see 
Is it an illusion that will never be

Feeling the hot flames 
Licking at my flesh 
Burning my soul 
Touching my breast

Hearing the screams 
Of unwanted soul
Burning in hell 
I feel at home
