I am this burning thing Living on it's own breeze. I sing my own song. I live how I please. When you see me coming. Don't run nor flee. I can guarantee your safety with me. (you can trust us) Be careful now. Don't stray too close. My fire burns. (will you stay with us?) My embers call. They whisper and flicker. With excitement and rush. (stay with us) Don't listen to them. You can't trust them. They are all ash and fluff. (stay with us) And when I go. Do not simmer and sway as I do. Do not listen to the whispers as they do. Because that is forbidden. Just like me. (Just like me)

(why won't you burn with us?)

I know I've already done something with fire. But I found that this was an interesting story despite the fact that it rhymes very little. Interpret as you wish.
