weeping willow
Willow is her name, for now she weeps
as she deals with all that has come to pass.
Into her very marrow, the cold seeps.
Hush, little child. Hush, little lass.
Step away from the black hole in your mind
to stop these feelings before they amass
Not everybody you see is unkind,
but keep that shattered heart behind a wall
and keep that terrible contract unsigned
Dear Weeping Willow, hold fast, don't you stall,
for I can hear your soul, can hear its call.
