Willow

She still calls out his name
Though he isn’t there
Willow tries to swallow the pain
But it is hard when she cares

He abused her every day
But didn’t touch her once
She tried to think of something to say
And he knows he loved her once

The deception of being sane
Keeps Willow from crying
She tries to swallow the pain
And it will never happen while she’s dying

Willow knows he is gone
But the pain still remains
The abuse still rings on
And in her mind, she knows not to be sane
