So Vibrant, But So Dull

A glowing, eye-catching fluffy soul,
freely wandering here and there.
The so-like paradise appears to vanish,
swifter than you can visualise. What seems to be
a colourless, dull, washed-out sky.
Silence dominates the area.
Something so powerful starts approaching
closer and closer. I see flames spreading across,
tree to tree like a virus, something so deadly.
I can feel them screeching for desperate, helpless need.
A gut feeling strikes me, something isn't right.
Screaming souls terrify my survival, safety is what I seek.
I feel death is nearby, the days are wandering,
how much longer will you hold back till we
disappear for good?
