i stare into the flame
why is something so dangerous
so beautiful?
it's contained...
therefore it is safe.
as long as i don't get too close
it     wont     hurt     me.
when used for the correct purpose
it is good.
if allowed to burn for too long
it can make a mess
it can stain
it can burn things
it can hurt those that are close

i  cant  take  this  candle  with  me
