You never gonna see it coming
One minute, everything is calm
The next you are staring at a wildfire
Wildfires don’t play nice!
They don’t stop, pause or wait
Until you’re ready
If conditions are right
Wildfires would just grow
They burn harder
Than most other fires
Their burn is more destructive
You can’t play with this kind of fire
Or it will consume you
So when you find yourself
Staring down at a wildfire
When you can’t breathe or walk
When you are hurting so much
You are actually numb
Just remember
Wildfires may not play nice
But neither do you
