Musings of a Wordsmith - 22. Elements
Somehow, missing @Carlos Hazday brings me to sharing another poem. Dear Carlos, wherever you are riding your bike, you are missed.
I wished I were metal
to watch without suffering,
but I missed my feelings.
I wished I were fire
to fight and conquer,
but I had to yield.
I wished I were water
to flow without an end,
but I missed my hugs.
I wished I were earth
to shelter without keeping,
but I missed the perpetual motion.
I wished I were ether
to vanish without missing,
but my heart got empty.
I wished a lot before,
now I wish I were
metal, water, fire, earth, ether.
Metal
to give strength in solitude.
Water
to let things flow.
Earth
to shelter life.
Ether
to discretely hold everything.
I wish I were
just who I am.
