If you come at just the right time on a midwinter night,
You can watch me dance and stand in my light.
You might be drawn to me but you can’t deny that underlying fear,
You know that I am dangerous,
Yet I beckon you with curvaceous colours to slowly come near.


Give into my charm
and I'll draw the moisture from your eyes,
and **** the oxygen from your lungs,
even if I mean no harm.

I only exist by consuming anything that gets in my way,
This is why, forever alone,
I must stay.

I am strength,
I am desire,
I am destruction,
I am beauty,
I am fire.
My English professor told us we had to write about the element we relate to the most.
