Hell's Inmates

They will thirst but have no water.
They will hunger without relief.
They will have eternity to wonder
What hindered their belief.

They'll cry until they have no tears.
They'll scream until their voice is gone.
They'll moan alone in darkness,
Knowing no comforter will come.

They'll long for friends and family.
They'll yearn for love but experience hate.
They'll strain to find some kind of light
Against the weight of endless night.

Weary they'll be but find no rest.
Their searing pain will not abate.
Their minds though ever racked with pain
Cannot forget that it's too late.

The many chances (memories now)
Remain to plague and aggravate:
"What was I thinking? Why so stubborn?
No help, no hope, no way of escape!"

Always aware that no one cares,
A lost soul is forever doomed.
It knows no life, yet cannot die,
But dwells in everlasting gloom.

No form of light, nothing in sight.
No kind of relief, pure arrant belief.
No more chance, nothing to enhance
Hell's perpetual grievous plight.

No help, No hope, No God.
No life, No love, No good.
No name, No fame, No claims.

Just fear, just shame, just pain.
Just lonely, just needy, just gloomed.
Just lost, just damned, just doomed.

Hungry, thirsty, lonely, fearful,
Hopeless, regretful, weary, tearful
Hurting, yearning, longing, plagued,
Fully aware, alive but dead.

Everlasting punishment! Unending shame!
Infinite guilt! Eternal blame!
Forever tormented! Endlessly mistaken!
Receiving justice! Of mercy forsaken!

When will it end? Never, not ever!
How long must one endure! Forever and ever!

Only doom and gloom!

Seeking relief but finding it not.
The temperature never changes:
It's excruciatingly hot!
