Water
A spark burning in water
Sinking deep into the core
Reaching the moss within
A long and cloudy slumber
Setting fire to the mud
Beneath the sea of life
Bubbles sparkling in foam
Creating, waves of tide
The water then turns into
A tempest of crimson flames
Smoke evaporating drops
Leaving behind, deep hunger
Fire and water merge
Into a grandiose hurricane
Craving what the soul craved
For thousands of years or longer
