TW: Christian theme

——✝️—-

There aren’t any chewing gum infested

desks or number two pencils,

no sushing teacher or profusely

scribbling students.

There’s a clock and it’s ticking.

I’ll die one day. So will you.

The test is like a furnace,

the fire - affliction.

You throw me into the flames

and join me in them.

You seperate the dross of my flesh

and make me into a precious metal.

You fashion me into Your image,

day by painful day.

You place on me great burdens,

weights that I cannot yet bear.

When I fall, You lift me to my feet.

When I collapse, You carry me.
