Eating Fire Yet Feeling No Burns

Eating Fire But Feeling No Burns My life ran with many twists and turns I ate fire felt not the ravaging burns, crawled across razorblades with glee nothing was sacred , and nothing was me Time wrapped me in a devilish cocoon hated the world , wanted the end soon, sent pain out asking for more in return wanted to fall, die and then slowly burn Then life made a sharp , sudden return I found her and no longer wanted to burn, why did this blessing enter my sad life why did she ever desire to be my wife Our merciful God gifts as he so desires to we that foolishly eat of the evil fires, gives generously of his fruitful trees hears all of our sobs, moans and pleas My life runs within a sure steady path I sleep so well, no fear of God's wrath, O' bright light that I finally get to see hand of God resting over an undeserving me!
