Where does one start on eternity

When I die, where will I be? Where does one start on eternity? At the beginning? Or more to the middle? Or perhaps, left of forever a little? Or at the intersection betwixt and between the pre~ and the post-me?

Your poem has a whimsical yet profound approach to the concept of eternity and the afterlife. The questioning tone makes it feel introspective, while the playful phrasing--like “left of forever a little” and “betwixt and between”--adds a light, almost mischievous touch to an otherwise deep subject.
