I think this is a metaphor for love, using the strong ideas behind Joan of Arc's religious love. She submits herself to the fire... if her love is fire, then she must let herself be wood and give her ashes to him. It can be about any form of love/passion and the paradoxal combination of pain and glory found in the process.
