Thoughts of a Deadman

Close your eyes and imagine death 
  The dark black suit your very last breath... 

Numb in every way no emotions to bare 
  Like a magic trick, disappearing in thin air 

Is heaven like earth, with lots of choices 
  Do we burn in hell,and hear screaming voices 

Would we see the ones we love,or even recognize their faces 
  Would we all be one color, or many diffrent races 

Is life after death something we share 
  When I die will anyone care? 

Will I be me in the great white light? 
  Or will I be you, burning everynight 

Will I wake up, from the depths of my soul? 
  And walk through the graveyard, with nowhere to go 

Will I be beside jesus and help heal the earth 
  Or will I live a quiet death, and smell the lovely dirt 

Death is not a choice, its the day of experaition 
  So ill sit here with my thoughts, intill my life is taken 

And when it is, and I'm slowly dieing 
  Just ask yourself, are you the next in line??
