Wildfire


Burn, the crackling fire Burn to the ground Wood smoke wood ashes Sparks in the air floating towards the trees Leaves crunch when trampled Shadows scatter from the heat Orange, red, yellow flames spread throughout Deathly light in the night of the shadows Black smoke underneath the dark sky Bright stars become shady curtains The soul shakes in every living being Time slows from fear as the light spreads Running, tripping, scrapes, and burns Chaos through fear, fear through chaos The forest burns to the ground Let the new forest begin
