This one is old but I was feeling it.. so here it goes...
I'm past the bright light, but my flight hasn't broken.
Life flashed so fast right when my last words were spoken.
I emerged in death with my sights set & hoping..
that I'd connect w/ any person I'd known when..
i was alive.
Yet, I was unpleasantly surprised by the smile i seen.
It was this kid I had regretfully met when i was a teen.
I mean..
we were the same age.. but he had such childish dreams.
It seemed, he'd always bring out the worst side in me.
He was the one who got me to drink'n first try some weed.
Then he would supply my need whenever I would fiend.
Until the day that i decided it was time to leave.
I said no goodbye & proceeded to drive with speed.
And i came to find out that he died. Indeed..
that his suicide had actually coincided with me..
and the day that I bounced.
Oh well...PEACE!! I cared in the least amount.
I was out.. to change my life and situation.
Just then, I turned my head to see another face'n
at first, I didn't want to acknowledge that..
I recognised this cat. I met him in college, back..
when I had left to regroup & get some knowledge. That..
guy was a wild man. Yeah, he was completely wacked.
In fact..
I remember the time he climbed the tower at school..
and threatened to jump like some damn cowardly fool..
cause of how his ex slept with some dude back in June.
It was soon after he lept that I stepped and moved..
out of that state & into a New York state of mind.
A second later someone said my name from behind.
I turn to find it was a guy who worked at the New York Times.
That was my first job out of a long line. Im..
glad I quit as quick as i did.
Why?
This dick would constantly pick on chicks for fun.
I'm talking sexual harrassment.. like touching tits'n run.
For him it was fun.. but for me it was no picnic.
So I decided to leave him there with all of his sick shit.
And as soon as I left.. he too was removed from existance.
"Rich!" someone yells from off in the distance.
I go to see who it might be.. but i am very hesitant.
It was this man I knew when I moved to my last residence.
He basked in the excellence of all that God had made...
And it was because of him that I died after I was saved
Cause for the last 5 years of my life.. it was to the Lord I gave.
And when he passed.. I fell to a hudled mass in his grave.
As fast as that memory came.. it went to the waste side.
I am now staring at myself.. looking at my face like..
"Is that me? Am I you" and "What do I say" right.
Then...
the pearly gates appear w/ a great white lite and..
that's right when.. i deciphered each one of those people.
Each one was a part of me & all 5 of them equal..
my entrance into heaven & my exit from evil.
