you are like fire
with a light capable of consuming darkness and melting goldΒ Β 
you are magnificent
so profoundly brilliant that you have secrets yet to be told
you are like magic
perfect to watch but forbidden to touch
constantly giving but never enough
your demise is inevitable
how can they not see
your tears mould your body leaving me with an infinite sting
you crackle in my ear
getting louder and louder as you consume those around you
swallowing us whole and spitting out merely a silhouette of who we are
I dare not touch you
though my desires burn bright I wil not
for you are like fire
our touch will be theΒ end of me
I will not let you burn me
my eyes sting as I watch you
I watch you dance
in a flurry of emotions I watch you reach
longing to grasp onto something
Anything
Desperate to burn and consume
I watch as your flame grows
Yor colors transforming you into someone else
Β I want to touch
To feel the sting
But I will not
I will not let you touch me
for your touch will be the end of me
