my appetite cannot be whet,
and i've never had a silhouette.
i feel not pain, but i can be killed.
i may have a master, but i shall not be willed.
i dance about, as if moved by passion,
though it leaves me weak, my composure ashen.
(i tried to post a rose icon, but i can't seem to find the button, even on the advanced editor...)

nice riddle
for the rose icon, you need to select it when you first post the thread - not a worry if its missed though, ive added it for you :)
is the answer a Fire?
my appetite cannot be whet, - play on words with fire always being hungry / water smothering the flames
and i've never had a silhouette. - no shadows possible
i feel not pain, but i can be killed. - snuffed out?
i may have a master, but i shall not be willed. - unsure, perhaps to do with man's use of fire
i dance about, as if moved by passion,
though it leaves me weak, my composure ashen. - the quicker a fire is burning the faster the flames are moving
