Between the trees
hides your face
staring at me.

Between the trees
everything lies
including you and me.

Between the trees
truth cannot be found
not in feeling nor sound.

Between the trees
lies become real
more real than truth ever is
and ever can be.

Between the trees
lie simple facts
facts of our love.

Between the trees
a promise was made
a lie I should say.

Between the trees
you dropped to one knee
and everything seemed like a dream
as you asked
"Will you marry me?"

Between the trees
where we once both lied
truths soon were confessed
as we sat and caressed the love we had between us.

Between the trees
as thoughts became words
and words left our mouths
and our mouths soon met
with a single kiss
the promise was kept.

Between the trees
I whispered goodbye
as you walked away into the night
never to be seen again.
