I'm a Weeping Willow

I'm a weeping willow for you.
I have tears on my pillow thanks to you.
You're the only one I'd give up the sun on rainy days
or forever be lost than to ever find my way.

I'm a weeping willow.
I've cried more than you'll ever smile.
I'm a weeping willow
yet I love you
and that's how, that's how
I live.

It's you I want
and it's you I've got
in my branches
can't you see?

I'm a weeping willow for you.
I've cried more than you've smiled.
It's true.

This is my favorite one so far- I love the imagery of the weeping willow. It seems like there is a lot of brokenness spilling out of you, into your poems. I pray you find healing.
Keep pouring out your words!
