THE FINAL "NO!" I TOLD JESUS

I woke up in hell a few moments ago
Silent screams pouring from my terror-filled soul
The doctor’s assured me that all had gone well
So why all this torment of demons from hell?

I noticed my family in stark unbelief
As news reached their ears of my sudden decease.
No plans for the future had ever been made
Now only wild flowers grow over my grave.

I lived for the good things in life to be had
And really didn’t think I was doing too bad
Repentance from sin was an old fashion trick
The church had in mind to disturb me when sick

But now only memories are left to reflect
The Voices of warning are haunting me yet
Across from this chasm the knock still is heard
As Jesus still pleads to respond to His Word.

I have an appointment before The White Throne
There’s no second chance for my sin to atone
The debt of my guilt Christ had offered to pay
Are the tormenting chains I must carry for aye.
--B. Pent
