ELEMENTS

Earth, water, fire, and wind are the elements
A new beginning but an old ending 

renewed absolved of our older problems 
The Earth hides within a shadow waitng for the end 

How does Earth survive when cries are floods 
starvation is droughts and fear is Earthquakes 

we are the Earth and we are life we are truth and lies 
Other planets cannot sustain me

Really Earth cries and laughs and yawns just like a child
Lost frightened and without anything waiting for me

Doors open and throught the days, months and years finally I am there on Earth
I finally have a home.

Thunder cries throught the roaring sky
as light as one thousand suns

It easily brakes your eardrums
It yawns to wreck havoc

Destroying lawns like magic

As fast as a speeding bullet
it is reading you like music

burning everything in its path
you can't underestimate its wrath
It's eyes see everything
more or less it severs things.
