It's Not Over Yet

You know that feeling, the feeling of being hurt by a loved one
The one that gets you reeling, life no longer seeming to be fun
When you felt a certain way only to find out you assumed wrong
For our emotion can often betray for I am not nearly that strong

It's only later you come to realize that that just wasn't the case
When something inside just dies and now all you feel is disgrace
You said some really stupid things and even though you're sorry
It's the consequences that it brings because they will always be

Now try imagining this, doing the same thing but to God instead
A point one might miss until that day they speak of you as dead
Such the feeling you'd receive in now knowing You were wrong
Oh how the soul will grieve for without Jesus oh how it will long 

But you are not finished and that sentence is not yet complete
A point not to be diminished especially when life seems replete
As one day it will be too late maybe even sooner than you think
As I said this is your fate, but it could all be over in a blink

How true, Vincent, those last two lines:) it's really sad that many people do not want to think of death or after:(
