Hell Poem by Deepak Manchanda

Hell

Rating: 5.0


I was in my bed, sleeping cozy and warm
My test on earth was ended without even alarm
How did it happens, try reaching to the root
A white light flickered and I'as rolled in a shoot

I got my senses back in a dark stinky place
Announced my name and said you are out of race
My heart started pounding, like temple's bell
Evaluation done already and I was going to Hell

Thinking Hell closely waiting on the other shore
Right then my ride ended, in front of its door
Dragged was then I, thrown in muddy hole
Next to me sobbing, was a really scared soul

Skinned were all and bathed in fire's rain
Souls howling loudly, we will never do it again
Ears hear screams only, breath turn un-control
Forgive me Almighty, chanting every soul

Terrorisd were my eyes and body soaked in puky jell
A soul whispered in my ears, Welcome back to 'the Hell'
In a blink of my eye, I flashbacked my thought
I could see clearly now, this is from where I start

To live with God forever, this test is the only way
How hard would this test be, He can only say
Conquer lust, ego and anger, one need to love all
Thee will embrace you forever, if one never ever fall
All will rise with sun, follow Geeta, Bible or Quran
Rest and sleep straight from Dusk until Dawn

Sufferings and prayers, brought me another chance
Mind and body given, to enjoy music n dance
I will Salve this time and determined to stay best
Just control five senses how bad could go test

I was given a family so I could not be alone
Friends accompanied with me in my safety zone
I needed to be thankful, for whatever was given
Asking crimes of my day, if could be forgiven

Conscious was given to me, who should be blamed
His Temples couldn't teach me, I felt very ashamed

I stood and walked towards Him, in slow moving line
I could remember even what happened in grade nine
How I am going to tell Him, what I am going to tell
Why could not break I, lust n greed's shell

That moment even came; I stood in front of Thee
My eyes got blinded when a white light fell on me
It was Sun in window and light was through the sheer
He granted me a chance another, message I got clear

Tears in eyes, folded my hands and I lied on my chest
Thanked Him several times for extending my test
I wished no one go to hell, wish no one see that place
All will meet Him one day, just remember rules of this race

I pray to God, grant each of us such divine power
All can kill their own devil and bury them forever
Now, I have to think myself what would I choose
How, Nirvana's focus, I never ever loose
