Fire Life and Death
Its easier to quit then to stay in the flames and fight
but sometimes standing in the hot coals and flames
is better than backing out and quitting
even though the road is tough, there is the end where you realize,
"hey, I'm NOT a loser"
"i won"
"I fought through this and made it out"
"a better and stronger person."
I'm walking through those flames of hell
knowing that someday the fire will die
And it will die
That day
I will come out of the wreckage.
I may be burned, battered and broken
but it will be the day I scream at the top of my lungs
"I AM VICTORIOUS. I HAVE SURVIVED AND NOTHING CAN STAND IN MY WAY NOW!"
