We all know what it's like, rejection. It hurts, it burns, it sears. But while the dragon's flames bring new life, and warmth all rejection leaves is a cold husk... never again...

he sees her 
in the distance
so beautiful
he must get closer
she stands apart
she laughs at the dark
so warm
so bold
so beautiful
closer and 
closer still
he knows it's 
dangerous
always a 
dangerous game
like a fool
he keeps playing it
hoping not to get
burnt
I watch the scene
I know the feeling
I know the results
I cry 
as the moth
meets the flame

-Daniel Hunt
