secrets of the willow tree

Oh, Weeping Willow, what secrets do you behold?
silent cries and stolen kisses 
among the faded sunsets and slurred speeches?
Do the declarations underneath render love?
or do your leaves bare the truth, watered by the blood of heartache?

Oh, Weeping Willow, what have you seen?
Trying times prevail but your roots run deep.
Steading in the earth, holding strong.
A bitter fate many will face,
yet, the sweetness of your love drips with every fall.

like fruit, you ripen.
enduring the eruptions of the tension from a summer's heat.
oh, Weeping Willow.
I hear you whisper amongst the wind.

engulf me with your shade as I surrender from the rain.
Ah, Weeping Willow. 
I pray your protection never fades.
Oh, Weeping Willow. Please keep my secrets safe
