Literature Text

I am fire.
I offer you
warmth and
light.
I need only
enough fuel
to keep me
burning bright.
Sometimes I need
to be protected
from the rain
that tries to suffocate
my flames.
If you don't feed me
and keep me safe,
I am gone forever.
You may ignite
a new fire,
but it will never
be me again.

~written 4/7/11
Some days words pop into my head, already arranged, and with something to say - this is one of those days.
