From my window I sat and watched
Watching the fire slowly rise
The flames all golden and red
Licking around the walls
Slowly the colours become brighter
The fire furious and hot
The windows starting breaking
And all I did was watch
It was a mesmerising sight
Watching the fire burning incandescently
Seeing the house starting to crumble
And the flames burning bright
I am overwhelmed by the power of the fire
I am scared at the force of the fire
I wonder what is going to happen
Yet I just stand there and watch
