What If

What if,
When you die, 
there is no Heaven,
And no hell,
You are just stuck here,
Wandering this earth forever.
But then you wonder,
Is this a dream?
Have I finally gotten to the point where I can't see my dreams?
Or is this a nightmare?
Where I have no one and all that is left there for me is Nothing.
That all I can see is Nothing...
And I'm forced to live my life alone forever
To be alone without you,
I wish I were dead,
Then to be without you
You make my heart beat
My soul to have light
You keep the dark from...
Consuming me,
The darkness that threatens to take me
That would surely kill me...
Then where would I be?
If there was no Heaven or hell
Where would I go?
Would I just walk?
An empty place...
In between life and death?
What if I never left that place?
What if I never got to see you again?
What if....

Interesting piece Felicia, like your line of thought and the way you take this. Although I would truly believe in a heaven and hell, it's good to ask the awkward questions of life to see where our thoughts take us. You give it nice flow and real meaning, well done!
