Voice
I look around my surroundings,
confused on where I was;
There was nothing but an endless void
of blackness all around me.
The echo of a dark voice suddenly ringed
within the invisible walls.
When I turned to face it, I saw the face
of a grinning devil.
The voice of heaven resonated in my head
"Come," it whispered, "You shall make heed here."
With hesitant steps, I walked toward [the Heaven the devil directed]
and found myself in the kingdom of light.
"It was your kind heart that gave you entry to here,"
the town hall explained to a perplexed me.
Immediately, I asked of my other brothers:
It seems only one found entry here as well.
[To that,] the memory of my last moments in life crept in mind
Like a threatening spider of grimness.
Remembering my brother's distraught dependence on me,
I quivered with overwhelming guilt.
"I'm a failure."
The voice of heaven echoed in my head
"Now," it soothed, "You mustn't cry."
With a sniff, I reluctantly wiped my tears away;
It was right. I had a duty here, didn't I?
After many days of studying and praying,
I was finally called up to the town hall.
I watched with anticipation as its front desk murmured those words:
"Are you prepared?"
The voice of heaven became one with my mind
"Yes," it smiled, "Live your destiny well."
Pridefully, I showed my designated scroll to my angel brother
that I have become a goddess.
