AFTERWORLD
The cessation of life,
It's not an option.
I snores in the middle floor in my room, in those blue shorts,
It was mortifying to sleep all day!
This, I compared to death!
But do they sleep all day?
Uncountable claimed they're living,
Still! I haven't found my gramps.
I guest something disguises.
Some pleasurable memories
keeps my Soul alive.
Families and relatives, wife and children.
Summer and the winter, rainbow and the sun
Lives beautiful.
Am I missing these as well?
When I remember my struggles on earth,
I felt getting away from earth to find some rest.
What if no fate return me?
What if is not pleasant there?
A place where no mother have conceived you.
How would that looks like?
But still!
We all last there,
I am soak in the empathy of fear
We all getting close to the unknown destination.
Hmmm phobia of after world!

The poem is talking about the unknown destination after death and that's where the tittle is derived from.
