The Weeping Willow's Song
May 13, 2010
I could see the deaths and sorrows,
Of all who had ever passed through this way,
And each was so graphic, each so
Terrible I cannot even say
My mind and my body grew depressed,
And I began to see things that
I couldn’t stand to know that could not be repressed,
And so now you know why, dear Cat
Why I stand here, weeping for eternity,
Why my heart has grown to stone and my body
Has grown into impenetrable wood, you see
My spirit cannot leave this tree.
