(The poem may be read backward too, from the bottom up)

In a world where I do not exist there's a place where I'm yet to enlist where my yearning cannot be dismissed and my soul reaches out to be kissed one day there, where I will re-exist after crossing that bridge in the mist (if life's demons I chose to resist) lifted high through that Heavenly midst where my loved ones hold hands and subsist on that day I will join them, assist in rejoicing the peace we had missed to this new world, my efforts persist

Lovely poem - and it’s fun that you can read it from the bottom up as well!
