~ Secret in the Forest ~

There's a secret in the forest
what, I cannot say
But starry skies and fireflies
are lighting me the way.

There are footsteps in the forest
whose, I cannot see
gardenia scent and grasses bent
all guide me to this tree.

Hush, hush
take silent breath
sigh the evening breeze.
Soft touch
upon my lips
kiss the dew, you please.

My heart beats in the forest
why, I shall not tell
but daylight done and twilight come
will hide it very well.

I shall stay within the forest
‘til the night is spent
with secret wound and gently bound
here to lie content.

Hush, hush
take silent breath
sigh the evening breeze.
Soft touch
upon my lips
kiss the dew, you please.

Hush, hush
take silent breath
sigh the evening breeze.
Soft touch
upon my lips
kiss the dew released.
