The Other Side of Death

THE OTHER SIDE OF DEATH I HELL’S GATE Life is a quagmire Life is a mystery. Starring through the gates of HELL on earth, Confused, I pick up my pen My thoughts diffused, I seek out a name in the sands of pain To describe what I feel, But on every try all I see is delusion and insanity And I ask myself what is really sane about life? I try to find meanings from the demented man on the streets But all I see is his darkened teeth, Mouth ajar, pouring out some meaningless words A perfect blend of incoherent giggles And a strange guttural sound called laughter. II Life is a mystery. In my solitude, I bring out my Bible trying to sing the beatitudes But my voice is mangled, Life dangling, heart tickling like an hour-glass I have wasted a great deal of ink scribbling meaningless words on paper Yet I am left without a meaning; Clueless, everything seems gloom. III HEAVEN’S GATE Life is a mystery Starring through the gates of HELL on earth I pick up my rosary Hopes lifted The sun high up shining brilliantly well, I see an HEAVEN of bliss lying yonder I see the diffusion of some rays called hope In a meaningless big big blob called world. I am on the Celestial plane I feel the Cherubs and Seraphs singing through my ears a soft loud song; A song of HOSSANA In my world of obscurity, in my world of pain I sing a new song A song of HALLELUYAH to the LORD Now I know the other side of death and that is LOVE Love conquers all.
