The Coals I Walked Over
Every coal I walked over
brought back the pain
I felt from the destructive memories
that have always burnt up in my spirit
the charcol of torture
from heartbreaks I endured
stung my heels like the fires of hell
until I needed guard my heart
from the pains of the coals
I have walked over in the past
to pacify the pain
from the destructive memories
that have always burnt up in my spirit
