amour d'arbres
by *Zaratopswhat was left amongst the weeds of the selfish downy green,
my little drops of self, i lost to violet skies. i lost to forever, and to forgetfulness.
you pillowed my head and we ate strawberries,
folded up in trees and fingered by grass.
i never once thought of all the yesterdays and tomorrows,
but of rivers. could they run far ahead, beyond our today?
perhaps i should love them instead of trees, for they are freer,
and echo Orpheus's laments.
i feel so caught up in you, and you are bound with roots to this earth.
my dearest, i love you, but i cannot free you.

How did strawberries inspire it, though??
I don't know, I wrote the strawberry part when I was eating strawberries?

And thank you!
