Untitled

Before the time of the humani
My sole purpose of existence
Was to provide warmth
And a fresh start for the new generation of life.
I never meant to hurt anything;
Now I am being forced to do so.
I am the life blood of humanity,
Yet they strap me to their belt
And activate my power
In a crowded area for the sole purpose of revenge....
I smell fear; I hear panic.
I have inadvertently become destruction.
I never meant for this to happen.
