Once Upon a Weeping Willow

A poem/ song I wrote a while back about the emotions/thoughts/feelings that I have gone through since my Dad left My Mum.

Once Upon A Weeping Willow,

A little girl, cried on her princess pillow,

Hoping and praying, that one day this reality will change,

Her tears turn to silver rain,

She cries out the pain and the words that she cannot explain,

How could someone so close, that I love so dearly, hurt me so much? She whispered.

Her silent whispers and silent prayers ,are unheard to the naked ear,

It hurts,it burns,tear by tear,

While shes at home crying silent tears ,he’s sitting at hoping, on his couch drinking a 6-pack of beers,

All she ever wanted was to be wanted.

All she loved was his love.

All she needed was him.

All she adored was being adored ,by him

But now she’s just plain bored, of all the pain,all the heartache…

Why bother? She wonders if there’s a way out.

Inside, she runs away, hides away,sleeps away.

Hides from the fear of living through the pain,

She cuts,she bleeds,she doesn’t know what she needs,when Daddy leaves…

Daddy leaves,the little girl grieves,

WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY

Goes through her mind,what did she do?! Shes loosing her mind!

No longer am I  the girl under the weeping willow..

Crying silent tears,

Ignored for years

Forever am I the lovely and beautiful ,loved, desired, wanted ,liked ,needed.

Needed unlike the pain that I have grieved.

Finally,

I feel relieved.
