Weeping Willow

Weeping willow why do u weep?
Is it for the secrets u keep?
Your sobs send ripples through the water
i fear i can bear it no longer

What purpose do your brown limbs serve
To camouflage your damaged nerves?
While others pass, praising such beauty,
I was through your hidden fallacy.

Such grateful curves your branches form,
Tearing through the light at dawn,
Cracking the perfect moon when shadows fall,
Have u one to trust at all?

Valour u hope to portray
By your strurdy trunk, day by day.
But i feel what grief u have worn
Amassed through years spend forlorn

I am not fooled by the few rings that bear your age.
For u, all the world's a stage
Others see false frailty in your character
Although u have witnessed many harsh winters

On your branches fragile leaves cling.
One by one they surrender to the breezes autumn bring.
Abandoning u, a hollow and leafless tree.
Weeping willow how can it be,
When i look at u, i see me?
