Two trees stand before me
To the naked eye
They seem to be tangled and angry
But to this lovers soul
There is a unique beauty
They stand still
Time and space
Is means nothing in their eternity?
Just like two lovers in a permanent embrace
They stand strong
In their resting place
Oh to have a love like these trees
Nothing seems to matter to them
As their branches touch in the autumn breeze
Maybe one day when I find you who
Haunt my dreams
Ill come back to them
And carve my love for thee
In these two trees
So that our love
Will be for eternity
An embrace that will always be
Everlasting in the life of the loving trees

I love the comparison that you've drawn in my mind. This is really a beautiful piece. I have a bit of trouble understanding some of the lines (Time and space is means nothing in their eternity?), but as a whole it really is so true! Do write more!
