Eternity Poem by Ojeikpo Elijah

Where are you headed, my dear friend?
In this journey, where will you end?
Life has its roots, but where do they lead?
To every end, there's a destination, indeed.

As we go on, in this path of life
Do we ever stop, and think to realize?
For every route there's an end,
That every step we take, every move we make.

Whether good or bad, it's a seed sow to ripe,
Life has its roots, but where do they lead?
Brings us closer to our ultimate fate,
We're all going somewhere, that's for sure.

We're all going somewhere, that's for sure,
But where that somewhere is, we must explore,
Will it be a place of comfort and ease?
Or one filled with pain and disease?

Ask yourself now, where are you going?
In this life, what are you sowing?
For every action, there's a consequence,
And ultimately, a destination for each of us.

Some may believe in a heaven above,
Others in the cycle of life and love,
But one thing's for certain, my friend,
To every end, there's a destination at the end.

So as you journey through this life,
Please remember...
Let your heart and soul be your guide,
Choose your path carefully, with every step.

For your destination, you cannot reset,
Where will you spend eternity?
Will it be a place of joy or misery?
The choice is yours, my dear friend,
For to every end, there's a destination in the end.
