In Your Element

For My Soulmate

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Air in water produces life

Water in air produces rain

 

Life and love is born of both

 

Air and water

Water and air

 

Mix it

Stir it

Drink it up

Breath it

Swim in it

Fly through it

 

If I am your water

Then swim freely, Lover

Drink me in, breath me

Knowing that water is never completely understood

Necessary for life

 

Purify me with your breath

Hydrate your driest dreams

Drown yourself in my soul

Give to me your tears

You need a good cry now and then

 

How deep does a single drop penetrate

the oceans that covers your earth

Dive deeply into me

Explore my undiscovered

I will protect and cover you

　

If you are my air

Blow upon me gently

Stir my embers naturally

Until my ignited flame burns freely

Quietly controlled by the breath of your soul

 

There must be air even in the deepest parts of the ocean

Because life is still there

Let me fly freely in and through you

Let me take you in

 

Experience you

Inhaling you through my being

A cleansing breath

Fill my soul that I might breath too

I need you to hear my own voice singing

i really like how you draw the reader in and keep the water and air theme going. How its an invitation and very sensual and then at the end--i need you to hear my own voice singing--WOW, very powerful and confident. i like it.

i really like your writing its verry soul searching in a way

[Linear]

This is a very sensual and tactile poem, one line followed the next in precision, each drop oozed from your soul and trickled, and in the end the reader heard your sweet song, a beautiful song of love and a yearning passion.

What a beautiful write....

[Coyote Poetry]

Such beauty and strength in this poem. I believe when a woman allow you in and she is willing to give you her all. No sweeter gift. I like the gentle and kind emotion in this poem.
"If you are my air
Blow upon me gently
Stir my embers naturally"

A Lover's plea, an invitation to the most auspicious of places in a woman's soul.

I have to say again how deeply your writing effects me - you are such a gift.

[Wondering Mind]

Metaphors within a metaphor all beautifully penned.

[YouoweYoupay]

I agree with Shellie on this one. It was cleverly written. The imagery was beautiful. I ejoyed the way the pictures and sounds were rendered in my mind as a reader. Water, in its purity and essence is always a wonderful thing to write about. Thank you for sharing.

What is the meaning of life without water, or life without air , same is love , there is no meaning to love someone and not breath his / her air, or drink his / her water :) ... beautiful !
