Sold my soul
for some cancer
in my throat
hot coals
swallowed down
the chimney base
and in the fireplace
what once burned
inside me
has gone
cold
for some cancer
in my throat
hot coals
swallowed down
the chimney base
and in the fireplace
what once burned
inside me
has gone
cold

Reading this *feels* like a lump of coal in my throat; I love the metaphor you've used
