If I love you I will never be a clinging trumpet creeperUsing your high boughs  to show off my height    If I love you I will never be a spoony bird Repeating a monotonous song for green shade Or be a spring Bringing cool solace all year long Or be a steep peak Increasing your stature  Reflecting your eminence Even the sunlight Even the spring rain No all these are not enough     I must be a ceiba tree beside you Be the image of a tree standing together with you Our roots, entwined underground Our leaves, touching in the clouds With each gust of wind We greet each otherBut nobody Can understand our words    You'll have your copper branches and iron trunk Like knives, like swords, like halberds, too I'll have my crimson flowers Like heavy sighs And valiant torches We'll share cold spells, storms and thunder We'll share mists, hazes and rainbows Seemingly always apart But also forever interdependent  Only this can be great love The loyalty is hereLove I love not only your strapping stature But also your firm stand, the earth beneath you
