Fire

Author's Note: I did my personal metaphor piece that is describing how I am like a fire.


I am a raging fire.

It takes the smallest spark to start me
And I'm hard to control once I'm going.
You might want to give me space when I'm burning
Because I leave a path of destruction.
Sometimes I cannot be contained,
Especially when the spark that started me
Is more dangerous than an earthquake.
It's hard to cool me down,
And it might take a lot to put me out,
But once I've stopped consuming everything in my way,
And the wild spark is gone,
I am completely harmless.
Except for the burning tang of smoke I leave behind.
