H20

My element is Water

How do I know?

Because every time I enter her realm

She wraps her silken, shape-shifting body around mine

And melts away my pain.

___

Bone breaks, heart aches

Soul cracks or a shaken spirit

She is my healer

She fills the fissures and the rifts

And leaves me with shining silver-blue scars.

___

I am buoyed by her shimmering calm

I am energized by her turbulent moods.

I dream wondrously of her secrets

I whisper my own into her darkest depths.

She holds them and hides them, gently.

___

I seek her out in thunderous pelting Rain

Or a lazy, languid Drizzle.

___

I seek her out in a candlelit Bath

Or a fast-flowing River

___

I seek her out in sapphire blue Lakes

Or a glowing emerald Sea.

___

In every form she belongs to me

As all of me

belongs to Water.
