Apollo & Daphne, Part II.
As Ovid wrote,
I’d turn to a tree
but
let you take from me
my branches
i’d turn to a tree
but
to only be
where you can
find me
i’d turn to a tree
only to know
that i would not
leave you
chase me
i am your Daphne
only
i will let you
catch me
only
my Apollo,
you can
have me
take from me
my laurel leaves
adorn your crown
a part of me
with you
i will give to you
i will never fall to
winter’s prey
i will be
your ever loving tree
your Daphne
