Love is like the water
It nourishes and brings life
Through blood
Unaffected by the rocks along its way
Following the paths in its place
Yet remains strong
Floating things upon its surface
Concealing the depths within
Love is like the wind
It nourishes and brings life
Through breath
Floating through the air
Unseen but still there
Yet remains strong
Blowing what needs to be blown far away
Cooling the storms within
Love is like the earth
It nourishes and brings life
Through skin
Holding the foundational base
Steadfast throughout all the days
Yet remains strong
Weathering the changing seasons
Holding sacred treasures within
Love is like the fire
It nourishes and brings life
Through warmth
Burning away the old mildew
Allowing things to begin anew
Yet remains strong
Forging life in its cleansing flames
Blazing the future within

Love is like the water
It nourishes and brings life
Through blood
Unaffected by the rocks along its way
Following the paths in its place
Yet remains strong
Floating things upon its surface
Concealing the depths within
Love is like the wind
It nourishes and brings life
Through breath
Floating through the air
Unseen but still there
Yet remains strong
Blowing what needs to be blown far away
Cooling the storms within
Love is like the earth
It nourishes and brings life
Through skin
Holding the foundational base
Steadfast throughout all the days
Yet remains strong
Weathering the changing seasons
Holding sacred treasures within
Love is like the fire
It nourishes and brings life
Through warmth
Burning away the old mildew
Allowing things to begin anew
Yet remains strong
Forging life in its cleansing flames
Blazing the future within
