Easter is around the corner. Everything could be pink and blue— Or a Van Dyck painting, Somber, subdued, pulling me through. I gather eggs and paper bunnies, Screaming beneath my breathless strain. Easter is never sunny— It always arrives with rain. Yet Easter hums with promise, A whisper of days to come. It melts the scars and sutures— A pill that numbs what's numb. It fills me with light and trembling, A sway between joy and ache. The future leans in, disassembling The weight I can no longer take.

Easter is around the corner
Easter is around the corner. Everything could be pink and blue— Or a Van Dyck painting, Somber, subdued, pulling me through. I gather eggs and paper bunnies, Screaming beneath my breathless strain. Easter is never sunny— It always arrives with rain. Yet Easter hums with promise, A whisper of days to come. It melts the scars and sutures— A pill that numbs what's numb. It fills me with light and trembling, A sway between joy and ache. The future leans in, disassembling The weight I can no longer take.
