Elements

Elements

 

 

The ice

Tickled at my flesh

Leaving redness where it went

It made me cry

It made me wish I could die

But my warmth only brought its demise

 

The fire

Takes me in its path

I become nothing but ash

I don’t get to think before I die

It is an all consuming wrath

But death by fire is not my path

 

The air

Truly doesn’t care

It is an invisible force

It is here and there

And everywhere

I must not get caught in the air

Or I will be blown everywhere

So lucky that I too don’t care

 

The water

Puts out my fire

And melts my ice

It slithers deep inside

There is nowhere I can hide

I have no breath

This is not though my true death

 

The earth

It crumbles by my touch

But can stand so much

It is not victim to the ice

And does not burn with my strife

The waters is just fun

Until it dries up in the sun

So earth is the only one

That can consume me

Until I am truly done

huh...i love that you chose to incorporate the elements into your poem...i love that spiritual/ nature part of life...anyways, this was rlly good...i like how you ordered it so one trumped the other...maybe add another stanza about wind/ air...other than that, it was a good poem :)
