Welcome To The After Life
I can't escape the thought of death
because it's always being whispered
under my breath,
like the wind giving chills
down your spine,
I feel death's grip on mine
and yet I feel calm, relaxed,
and welcoming like it's
finally happening.
But all I got is a tease of
what's to come, that I still
have life to overcome,
still have pain and torture
to be done.
Death doesn't like to be cheated,
that's including suicide,
your taking away his job,
his responsibility, your time on
this place is decided by when he
thinks it's your time to die.
Everyone sees him as the bad guy
but he's just doing his job,
making sure it's done right
and hoping we all live to an old age,
a long full life, so he can say,
"Are you ready my friend? It's time,
take my hand, I'm taking you home.
The pain is over and the peace
has just begun.
Welcome to the afterlife."
