Fire

Fire I may be a deity, but I do not truly know. The people talk about me, but have never told me so. They gather all around me like a holy worship ring... Staring into my illuminating depths.. I am mesmerizing. My powers are used to nourish and also, to protect. I may sustain a life, or give a fearful, painful death. I was created with a positive and a negative side. The power I can lend you, may even let you fly! Humans will offer the most sacrifice, In the times of bitter cold and snow. The trinity of Light, heat, and smoke, Follow whereever I go. I am a light in the dark. I am ultimate power. I am complete destruction... In a negligent hour. I am zeal and passion, Desire, and hungry heat, You pray I am controlled Whenever we may meet. I am comfort and warmth, To those tired, stressed out souls, I am always needed When survival is the goal. I soften and blur rough edges, and I keep secrets safe. Like a thief I'll steal your treasures... ...And like magic, I erase.
