I saw them everyday at the same place and the same time. Two teenage boys, one with blond hair named Lucas and the other one with curly brown hair named Eliott. These two boys were lovers, secret lovers. And I was the only one who knew their secret. They trusted me, and I accepted them as they were. Lucas and Eliott shared with me their feelings, emotions, fears, love...
I was there when they met for the first time. I was there when they kissed for the first time. I knew all about them and their relationship, I was their confidant.
Lucas was talking about how he was afraid to come out and have to face the reactions of his friends. Eliott reassured him by kissing him and taking him in his arms, while I gently stroked his hair.
The days passed and I saw them more in love and more fulfilled than ever.
One day, they decided to bind me touche them, engraving their names on my skin. They thanked me for my hospitality and came down from my branches to face the world. My leaves danced to the rythm of the wind and stroked their hair for the last time.
