True Life Begins In Death

When in my time of dying I will not shed a single tear-
Because I will face my death without any doubt or fear.

Instead I will praise God with my final breath-
Because I know that true life begins after death.

Hey P.D. I was inspired by a book by Anne Rice called Menoch The Devil (I was fascinated by her description of Sheol in it.). The last name means approaching death...we all are...after all. Thanks 4 reading and commenting on my poem. PEACE 2 ya!!!
