what is it to hold a forest fire in your arms? well, i'll tell you. it's hot. very very hot. flames licking at your skin, heat biting at your throat. glowing embers pressed against your lips, the sound of wood popping. in that moment you'll know that this is it, this is what souls are really made of. your heart will throb and your head will spill, wondering if it is safe to be playing with matches. you will realize soon enough that the flames are burning, burning away your surroundings. you are here, you have a forest fire in your arms. it's hot. but it's not hurting you, it's showing you what it is to be alive.
i may be afraid of flames, but this one? this one i'm going to keep forever.
