The Element

I thought this world will remember me,
and then I met the others,
insects under the blanket of our bed,
I slept on thorns suddenly,
unless I met the one they call " White ".
She covered me with leaves,
and talked to me only the way we understood.
I was reborn in the forest,
solitary rose in the water,
the sky was dark forever,
filled with magic and falling stones.
"Don't be afraid", she told me with kindness.
"You are no more than the element of nature".
So I became a water, buried the fire in me,
let the " others " grow, wild flowers,
I loved without love shared,
feeling unknown to me.
Why do we meet expecting someone else to save us,
when we are whole, reaching out.
Water you've never been water,
bring your fire out,
shine and give warmth
to the world.
