The element that you feel inside your veins - the fluid
That you want on your tongue
You feel alive when it touches you
You synchronize your melodies with its waves
oscillating within its vibrations
You want to wash away your sins with it
That runs deep inside your soul to find peace
I am that element, I am water.
There is depth in my heart
and purity in my soul.
I provide intuitiveness to nature.
I can pick up on the feelings of any creature.
I travel in the cracks of unknown vast lands
and give meaning to their lives.
I go beyond the rules to forgive and heal others.
I learn about quality and wisdom from mothers.
I can build up those who are falling apart
and love everybody who touches my heart.
I have loved the waters from different shores
they are independent as I am
they loved me back with all their depth
and got lost in their deep dreams too
We brought each other back to the reality check
It only raged our waves
up in the air
and back upon us, forcefully.
We travelled apart to oceans unknown
and I never made it back to
all the parts of my past self. I am changed.
I have loved the fire on the lands
that provides warmth, near seashores, to hands.
Also met the fire buried under the ocean
so calm and innocent.
We, mostly, danced our demons together.
Neither of us won that fight
because it meant losing the other.
Instead, we made a truce - for the better.
Do not cross each other's path
when destiny is not in our favour.
I have loved the colourful air
sometimes breeze, other times hail.
Felt its touch in the humidity,
listened to its wild thoughts,
and deep sensitivities,
played with its rainbows,
shared past experiences.
I swam while it flew.
It all felt like bubbles, tickling me all over.
It runs all around me - chasing me
or moving away from me - I don't know.
Maybe the air doesn't know that too -
after all, it's the air.
Never did our deep ends shook hands.
I met the land.
I watched an island glow in the sun
and in the moonlight.
I touched its bare skin and soothed it
and felt that graceful warmth for the first time.
The land has been there for ages
liking me for who I am.
It isn't scared of my cyclones.
I'm not scared of its avalanche.
It pulls me back from my deep insecurities
and dives in my deepest thoughts.
It makes me rest for my feet are tired.
It wants me to dance freely and laugh lively.
Although, I am a little afraid of being independent -
what if I go too far!
I don't want to lose a single sight of the stones that fancy me.
It assures me - it will love my renewed waves
with every new skin of land that I encounter.
I have my own imaginary simplification -
maybe I could take it with me.
Wherever we go, we go together
and settle a home at the bottom of the ocean.
Maybe this time
I can fall in love
and feel it reaching back to me.
Maybe this time
in a very long time,
I'm not afraid
to hit the rock-bottom.
