Heat creeps up
Light flickers
You seek the warmth the fire offers
It guides you home, through darkened shadows
It's warmth hugs you,
keeping death from you

But don't get too close
For one wrong move the fire will consume you
It's never fully safe, yet you chose it to protect you

It will burn.
It will swallow you whole,
leaving nothing left
Yet you dance in the fire like you're with an old friend

Don't get too comfortable.
Don't get too near
For the fire is not the friend you made it out to be, I fear.
