Easter egg, Easter egg

you're not ready yet.

First we'll have to poke a hole

and drain out all the wet.

Easter egg, Easter egg

you're not pretty yet.

Now that you're a hollow shell

we'll dump you in the color red.

Easter egg, Easter egg

you're not useful yet.

We'll push a piece of string in you

and hang you over the bed.

Easter egg, Easter egg

you're as good as you can get

we'll throw you out and crush your shell

without even breaking a sweat.

This

is the

day to gain

control over

yourself, and listen

to me speaking, without

interrupting me, shutting

me down and silencing my words.

You are not that important, nor am I

But let me have this moment, for my sake.

"I came up to him, approaching from behind. He sat there, bent over, his fighting spirit seemed broken.

'Are you still upset about earlier?', I asked carefully.

'Fuck off', he replied, but even that sounded more half-hearted than usual.

'You don't need to be.', I said and laid my arms around his back,

'It's okay.'

He struggled. I could barely hold him back. But then he stopped, turning around to me, and I saw the immense tiredness in his eyes.

'You don't have to be strong all the time.', I whispered and buried my face in his hair.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw him smile.

candles

bones

a pentagram

scented smoke

dyed black sheets

circle of people

chanting dark pleads

"wake up, o demon

don't leave us alone

lighten the dark

to serve our needs"

magnificent screams

fluorescent eyes

a flick of it's fingers

the summoners cry

the candles go out

books are sent flying

the windows crash

wind howls inside

the demon exits the circle

walking over dead bodies

too powerful to control

he was unleashed

on our world

roaming free

to this day

even though

you think that

nothing will change

all stays the same

let me tell you

that is is not

forever

new shadows appear

as new light shines

and new colors will show

when the old ones fade

I told myself that I would do it

promised long and hard

to keep working

to keep fighting

just to reach my goal

I told myself I couldn't do it

thought and slept and talked

never working

never fighting

and never reaching my goal

fingers weak

arms are twitching

legs are flailing in free air

even if

this was real

I couldn't keep on holding here

I'm weak

In every sense

and I can't do anything about it

we were destined to meet

I realised, as I gazed upon you

you were different from the others

you were a new face in my mind

we were destined to meet

I thought, every time you laughed

your endless joy made me smile

you were the opposite of me

we were destined to meet

I wrote, vaguely remembering your face

your voice became faint

your smile was blurred out

we were destined to meet,

I whispered,

but not destined to stay
