Weeping Willow

My eyes now closing
my bed is waiting
Twisted sheets, 
lost pillows.
Outside my window a weeping willow
It sways with grace, 
my face it knows,
I lie back as its branches blow
The wind is singing a calming melody
Better than a doctor's remedy
Smiles as I sleep,
my dreams I shall keep
A prince in mind,
when I wake stays behind.
Heart pound moments while I dream
Morning tears now are wept
To me he is real, in my heart he is kept.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

I enjoyed this beauty. It was sad but somehow still hopeful as the last lines seem encouraging at heart.
