You are the flame in my story



The flame is a strong orange color
With small sparkling yellow and red moments
The flame warms everything so nicely
The flame whims and creates security in an otherwise cold place
But still, it has the ability to melt
Glowing lumps burning through every beating heart
The flame develops a greyish mist out into the world
Which suffocates and engulfs everything around it
The flame burns everything beneath it
Until it's dry and desolate
Except for the existence of the flame
So eventually the flame extinguishes itself
As it extinguished everything around it
In that way, it reminded me of you
