Small coal
At first it was just a spark A sting in your back Or your wrist A reminder Now you are burried in fire You failed to conceal that spark Your body in a volcano Lava leaking on your shoulders After you tried so hard to burry yourself Into ice Into the coldness Down into the winter where you didn't belong Now you have to face this battlefield That you were running away from so long It burns Everywhere There's no escape You can't move You are turning into burning stone You're lost at the heart of the earth That small red coal you didn't want to mind Has consumed you Your skin is in flames And as you try to reach a hand to touch the water It vanished. You're left alone with the fire. All you've got left are those empty eyes Looking for a soothing you won't get. At first it was just a spark But they let you turn into a volcano.
