When At Last I'm Gone Poem by Solomon Terlumun Tule

When At Last I'm Gone

Rating: 5.0


When at last I'm gone,
to my everlasting home.
what will be my lasting legacy?
will I be judged as one who had no mercy?
Will the guns I use lead me to a perfect place?
that I ran a good race?
will they say I was very bad?
making others often sad?
will they say I was peaceful?
or I will be tagged a troublesome fool?
will I receive a heavenly heir?
or rewarded a tormenting hell?
will I be called religious, ethnic and racial?
who was always never impartial?
what will really be said of me!
when at last I'm gone,
to my everlasting home.

But it is so important to think of death, because only then you are conscious of living a good and noble life on earth.

Very few people ponder about after death. Most people think of their present life.
