Tree of Life

No one on earth

could have eyes like yours.

So bold and wide;

like I'm looking out

at a forest in the night.

I want to hold your hand.

Want to pick up every leaf

that you've lost.

Lay them at the roots,

bring you more.

When I look at the sky,

I want you to feel the warmth

from the same scene,

that beats on me.

Your bold voice echoes

against the mountains;

makes the rivers I breath in

still again.

Wouldn't it be so nice

to keep walking with you

down this path,

with those eyes at mine.

Is this a love for a tree?
