The Elements

With a fresh breath of air, I traveled with the wind. I felt as I could fly, and I wanted to be carried away. I could never predict your direction, oh so beautiful air...


With the warmth of fire, I lost myself in the inferno passion of ember red. I got too close, now I'm left with burns, oh so beautiful fire...


With the enchanting water, I felt at peace, I could stay afloat. The waves slowly drift me away,I can only see an ocean of gray, oh so beautiful water...


With the earth I stand, I wander your terrain. With geologic time the most patient of all. I hope to unearth you, so we may preserve. Oh so elusive earth, I will forever explore...


With the mystery of aether, I seek you in all the wrong places. It was never without, but always within. If I find you, may I give away all matter, and embrace your ephemeral kiss.
