When A Bell Rings



I went to
Hell
Today.
An angel
Led me there...
Took my hand and
Showed the way
My soul yearns for heaven,
It senses the beauty and
It cries.
But my angel told me
"No."
I ask my angel
"Why?"
And she reveals to me my
Sins.
And I cry again
For she is right
"Will I stay here
Forever?"
She smiles at me,
Oh so gently..
"Yes."
