I think this song is about establishing a likeness with nature and eventually dying as one with it in all of it's glory. There's a certain peace with being alone in the woods, where timelines becomes less important, imagination runs rampant and forever seems delayed. I'd say another aspect this song touches is the idea of being content with loneliness.
