Elements

I scent the air and it surrounds me,
I love the way you hold your head,
I touch the sky and it confounds me,
You are my daily bread.

I kiss the stone and it forgets me,
I love the softness of your skin,
I hug the earth and it begets me,
You are my soul's way in.

I swim the waves and they swallow me,
I love the strength in your bone,
I wrap up warm, but chills follow me,
You and I are alone.

I feed the fire and it scorches me,
I love the heat within your soul,
I breathe in and make the torches free,
You are what makes me whole.
