What happens when you are dead,
about this much has been said.
Most people think there is just alive and dead,
But perhaps they are incorrectly lead.
Another state I fear most,
is becoming what is called a ghost.
Not alive and not dead in afterlife,
A state where there may be strife.
Where they stay near their previous life,
So there are three states: alive on earth,
spirit after death in afterlife, and ghost.
A ghost is where you may not know you are gone,
gone to the great beyond.
So if you die head for the light,
you may fly there like a kite.
You can't take it with you,
whether it be 1 million or two,
So after one dies they find they will rise,
'the last bus out is leaving then,
they should get on it if they can.

Am I alive or am I dead?
About this much can be said.
If I was dead would I know?
I might think I am here and just go
into the attic as a ghost,
and sit there for years  or decades at most.
Not knowing that time went by,
sitting there not knowing why.
Ghosts have no concept of time,
letting centuries pass by.
But ghosts cannot communicate and talk
with those who are alive on earth and walk,
they could go into the light but do not,
so on the earth they remain caught.
If they go to the light they can see past family,
and others that they wish to see.
So dont end up in between alive and dead,
as a ghost as I have said.
Go to the light when you die,
so you will not wonder why.
