People Say I Will Burn In Hell

The fire is in my belly now
The coal of existence burns my soul
And destiny is on the horizon
That which warmed my heart is no more
Residue faintly remains
And that which was
No longer heats the cockles of my heart
The ashes of existence blow in the wind
I can see them buffered in the trees
The occasional wind combs them into the fire
I can remember my fierce independence
And the strength of my heart
Yet my bowl is today full of empty values
And my heart burns in fiery pain

The sun is here again this morning
Another day of the epilogue falls away
I expect the pain of what is to continue
And the fateful day continues to come
And there is no stopping deaths dynamic
Yet I can take charge of it
I can make it mine
