I wonder what may wait beyond

I wonder what 

may wait beyond

such blinding light 

or heavenly song

from that ideal 

this world seems bleak

next to countered Gothic chic 

Does the Devil  

step where we once walked?

or whisper lies 

into our talk?

Perhaps that is fiction,

comment I cannot

for all I know 

We are destined to rot 

Like everything organic 

we spoil and expire

until then we must

beat and perspire

then gently wiping 

said sweat from our brows

we deal with tomorrows 

Trials and tales 

Reviews

I wonder why we toil and sweat and stress over life and money when we are only here for such a short time. if you believe in the after life that's great but for me it's lights out when the time comes, my battery is not rechargeable and I won't keep going and going in another realm. I like this poem because you'll get a lot of different opinions on what is next

I share the same logic. when you die, you die. Thank you for your interpretation and time. :)
