3. The Essence of a Burning Flame

Have you ever lit a match? Flicked a lighter? Did you realize how beautiful fire is? A bright flame with intense colors. It has the power to give and to take. It's powerful yet lonely.

Powerful in the way that it can destroy. Strike fear into the hearts of who it's taken away from. Scar those that have survived with a token of rememberance.

It burns away everything it touches leaving nothing but ash behind. Ash, a fragile dust like pile of death.

All alone due to the death of everything around it. Fire takes, fire takes, fire burns it all away.

Ash to ash, burn to burn; When will you ever learn? It stings, it stings! You'll never be able to forget the pain. As you burn you may sing and dance in the light of a thousand flames.
