A Tree In My Garden

I feel hollow inside
Like nothing can fill me
Iβm reaching out to you now
Because one time, you healed me
A lone tree in the garden
Of my insecurities
Surrounded by the life
Of things that killed me
Lurking for love
With roots running deep
All I find is disappointment
Disappointment in me
When will I be enough
Asks the young/old willow tree
Limbs wagging in the wind
βWhatever will be will beβ
Close the garden gates
And leave me in peace
With my vices and vacancy
I wish you wouldnβt leave

Should I stay or should I go now?
That was my thought after reading the final stanza of your poem.
Sometimes we say one thing but mean another.
Nice writing, Chel.
