Right at that time I'd left my body
Floating in space, spinning so oddly
Trapped in mid-air, I knew I'd died
A self-inflicted suicide
From overhead, Twas looking down
I see myself sprawled on the ground
Cut off from life and motionless
The last breath, ripples from my chest
I rise, ungoverned, from the earth
Away from thoughts of my self-worth
Didn't think it twice or leave a note
"No more", the last words fom my throat
For this, I knew I'd go to hell
But that, I chanced, and bid farewell
Onward, I rose, for miles and miles
Until I reached the golden aisles
Pillars and arches, cloaked in gray
Two rows of angels lined the way
Amidst them, I approached humbly
Their golden halos guiding me
With nimble steps, I tarried past
Until I reached the gates, at last
There was a line of spirits there
Waiting their turn, to learn their fare
An old arch stood and went through names
Rachel, Matthew, Kate, then James
Some spirits passed and got their wings
Some spirits fell, and some were flinged
At last, the pointer fell to me
I stood there, trembling so shamefully
He spoke and said "You will be seen"
"He waits for you, count steps, eighteen"
And so I walked to eighteen steps
With lightest steps, I really crept
There in the clear, I heard his voice
He told me I still had a choice
I could go back and change my life
Or be a ghost, stuck in my strife
I hesitated, so ashamed
I said "I just have too much pain"
He told me "I Am With You Still"
"Go Back And Make This Life Fulfilled"
With this, he sent me back to earth
Back in my body, with new birth
I promised God, to change my trend
And never kill myself again
