Alchemy

The very air that I breathe, on Earth, ill dignified

Emotions overflowing, cup spilled over onto fire, passion snuffed out

Water and air, fair weather friends

Just as air feeds fire, so does Earth

Neutralized, fire and earth make a short story

They can’t be spoken into life, only felt for a moment in time

She fans your sparks, I give you fuel

I burn, and burn away

For you and only you.
