Staring at the coals
Watching as they change colors
And burn into nothing
Enchants me
I can't tear my eyes away
From the bright flashes
Of orange
Licking and tasting the wood
It craves to devour
Smoke rises
Effortlessly
Into the night sky
Shivering
Moving closer
But not too close
For though its flames mesmerize
They can inflict pain
And ****** the breath from my body
So much suffering can come from
Trusting Fire
