My Girl Ending

Internal dialog
-Why do you think people
want to get married?
-When you get old,
you just have to.
-Who's that with your dad?
-That's my mother.
-I'm gonna be an acrobat
when I grow up.
-Vada, would you think of me? Well,
if you don't get to marry Mr. Bixler.
-Now we're blood brothers for life.

The poem
"Weeping willow with your tears
running down...
Why do you always weep and frown?
Is it because he left you one day?
Is it because he could not stay?

On your branches he would swing.
Do you long for the happiness
that day would bring?
He found shelter in your shade.
You thought his laughter
would never fade.

Weeping willow, stop your tears.
There is something to calm your fears.
You think death has ripped you
forever apart.
But I know he'll always
be in your heart."
