Writing Prompt Wednesday #27

7) Write a poem based on your belief about life after death... or about what you WISH you believed. https://www.creative-writing-now.com/creative-writing-prompts.html

NOTE: This isn’t what I believe, perse, but I thought it’d make a good poem.

Someday we will all retire from this earth
Our lives here will end with our final breath
And we’ll continue on our journey
One that won’t be stopped by death

We’ll all go onto heaven
Where good and evil unite
All given a second chance
All given different sight

Together we will stand
Locked by the bonds of life
No more will any struggle
Give up their toil and strife

Alas, that’s what I wish

Sadly, there’ll never be a place
where good and evil can coexist
The sad truth is, one will be favored
And the other will be dismissed.

There’ll be no second chances
No chance to restart
You’ll be judged on entry,
Not what’s in your heart.
