Rest in peace willow of the nest My condolences for such dreadfulness I did not mean for the sun to neglect you I did not mean for your leaves to abandon you
Forgive me, dear willow of the nest Forsaken by all the living ****** by such dreary darkness.
Dear willow tree, No longer will I burden thee When your seeds begin to grow I hope that you know Your new life will intertwine with my death And with my last breath I’ll curse you with my sorrow You won’t see me tomorrow Past the pain of now’s goodbyes Please tell me why, oh why!
Dear willow of the nest Do you think pondering such revenge is best? Trade your soul in for new branches instead of Sleeping in the maggots that fill your trunk bed
Meanwhile, lingering upon the magic tops of neighboring trees are new seeds They shall bring with them bold opportunities, Their company shall bloom gardens They shall dance in the wind while summoning a thousand pardons For they shall not be the ones to fill your empty nest That once carried in it a hopeful wish, at best.
Every last piece of me has dispersed into the universe Never again shall they come together Never again shall I be whole You can grow old with your new endeavor While I create art with my soul.
Goodbye, my beloved willow tree of the nest You were a fantasy; a courter; a lover; A whimsical romance, at best.
