Melting

The city is burning
No one knows why.
I know why
Though how can I
Own up
To what was meant to be
A small flame.
Softly blazing,
Happily flickering,
No one knows why.
You know why
When the wick burnt up
The fire continued
Bright as we can handle
Light for the whole city
Lovely light,
Burning bright,
Melting you.
I try to flee,
But
You’ve melted me.
