There is so much more

I see a light shining ever so brightly.
Shall I take time, address it in cleverness politely?
I bow before something far beyond the fleshly.
He tells me not to bow and only gently he reminds me.
I am your passage not your keeper, not your friend.
Sent by Him who is to take you where you haven't been.
My head spun in fright as he stood up to his full hight; his body shone like the sunshine.
Please do not fear me sir, I've only come to guide you.
Where we will go is hell unknown to mortals who appear here.

Downwards I continued until hell I finally reached.
But everything was cold and quiet and i felt something was incomplete.
So I looked up and asked the angel just where in hell did everybody go;
All he did was look down at me and tell me:
This is all you need to know.
But before me and him ascended the depths and deep dark of the pit, a voice called out from the heavens and told us there is so much more.
At first i thought it was a blessing.
To know how God treats wrong-
But then all the voices were yelling and no one cut them off.
They were screaming; painful, painful how dare i lie,
The foolishness spent over a lifetime.
Shameful, shameful a heart has one as I,
Hating the sun and the moon and the sky.
All I heard was all they ever asked for.
All they left behind.

But it all went quiet.

As it always does
The ones who were most silent are the demons boiling inside.
The humans and angels, demons alike
The all were just silent.
From pain or from hatred of that terrible thing called life.
My hand began to slip
From my guardian guide.
I fell and I tripped into the asylum inside.
In the deepest depths of torture.
One might think you'd find,
Some kind of elaborate strife.
But a more simple way was devised.
I couldn't see so far ahead as to make it out alive but the truth hit me most certainly harder,
I had already died.
A light and some water to help me recover but nothing came beside.
I saw all my life on display.
I saw the people of every day.
I saw a sinner hate more sinners till one day they got to die.
Dragged from far beyond the doom i was pulled out into a room
Everything white and clean and nice hell it must have been a dream.
It must have been a nightmare.
