the element of fire which burns our passion, the element of water which calms us, the element of earth which makes us whole, the element of air which guides us, the element of spirit which grants us life, all things are necessary for us, all things needed for our happiness, without air we are lost, never to find our way, ] never to know what will come, never to learn from our mistakes, without earth we are never complete, never knowing what is missing from our lives, never to learn our true selves, only knowing an imitation without water never to be calm, never to be focused, never learning to be content with ourselves, without fire we can never love, never to know the pleasure of someone else be your side, never to learn the meaning of true happiness, never feeling to pain, the pain that comes from loving and being turned away, without fire, there can be no spirit, without spirit you go through life wondering, wondering what happened, what happened to you, how everything fell apart, without spirit you are never truly alive, only but an empty shell, without fire you can never be happy, never truly happy, without water you will never be calm, always anxious, without earth you will never be whole, you will never be you, without air you will never be free, free to do what you will, if you miss but one opportunity in life, if you lack but one element, you will be but a shadow of yourself...

I really like this one, but you get really repetitive at the end. Maybe that's what makes it so great.

i made it repetitive because i wanted the point that in essence all of the elements are vital to us...

It is an amazing poem, and your style of writing still holds true. This is one of my favorites.
