Dancing (tentative... really tenative title)

[nikavia]

(This is from the previously mentioned "the one that's like tru calling but came first" world)

A flicker of light in the dark. A human life, come and gone in comparison to eternity. You blink, it’s gone too late, too bad. You never know when that one little thing will throw off the precarious balance between your life and your death. When an accident will send you hurtling towards your doom.

Most religions say something waits in the beyond, a place of peace for good people, not a place for sinners. Sinners aren’t supposed to get that second dance.

And I was a sinner. Out of the Seven Deadly Sins, I committed all of them in the hours before my death. I prided myself on an accomplishment. I ate two pieces of cake when I should have had one and ended up throwing it up later anyway. I accepted more money then I should have for a simple work. I was lazy when I should have celebrated. I lusted after the person I loved and was envious of the person at their side. And in anger and grief I died.And the Ten Commandments? The person I loved had become my God and I painted masterpieces of them to become the idol of many. I cursed several times as I took my final gasping breaths, the darkness closing in from all sides. I worked on the day I should have rested. I yelled at the parents that I should have loves. My heart was not with the person at my side as I coveted a person on another’s arm. I stole a razor from my best friend’s cabinet. I lied to him, saying that I was fine. And Finally I murdered myself, bled to death and died.

Lets see if I can pull off a Livejournal Cut.
