I wonder how that goes;
what if I died thinking you still loved me—
if I never discovered your lies.
Would I be in Heaven guiding
the man I'd had spent my life with
if I hadn't passed?
Or do I find out the lies
and deceit
and infidelity
as I walk through The Gates.
Would I have to suffer heartbreak
even after death?
Would I die once more while
after making it to
Heaven?
