Amygdala's Branches

Growing in my skull is a green willow

It lived outside of my bedroom window when I was young

From the almond seed of my amygdala 

The wind sobs when I do

Causing the branches to tickle me 

They're growing longer and I can't stop them

They are finding more to use against me

Willows are my favourite, I thought I could trust you to not suffocate me with your branches.
