"Not a chance in hottest hell"
The terms some people use
To say they'd never change their way
And life in Heaven so refuse.

"Hell would have to first freeze over
Before I'd change my mind.
I'm too young to die right now;
Hey, I've got lots of time!"

Some say they're going to Hell
And just can't wait to leave
A never ending party
With friends they do believe.

Yes, Hell is where they're heading
No party will it be
Weeping, darkness, haunting cries
And knashing of the teeth.

Hissing fire, scorching
The Lake of Fire, torment
Dementia, torture, voices wail
They'll pay the Devil rent.

You've got time or so you think
To play your games full through
But you don't truly, really know
When God will call for you.

HOW LONG TILL THIS IS YOU?

Excellent poem and so true! I think we are all guilty of feeling this way at one time or the other.

Poetry is the spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings: it takes its origin from emotion recollected in tranquility.
