A spark ignites creating


A spark ignites 

creating a fire 

burning for years 

without dying out

engulfing any room it enters

in just seconds 

Fire is smart 

it is fast and hot

Getting stronger with the elements around it

It burns and burns leaving it's scourch behind 

Sometimes even written into history 

all until water comes to set us free
