spring

A robin lay lifeless at the base of a tree

Peaceful.

The sun shining down

Mocking the symbol of spring's arrival

Or bringing new life to its meaning.

Life is beautiful

Carrying on despite the eventuality of death

Or because of it.

The fresh green grass sprouting up though the dried brown

The hot sun warming up the cold ground

Reminders of the past and the future lay all around.

Those eyes. Those eyes.

Those portals to nothingness

A reminder of what awaits us all

A reminder of what came before

The body remains as a memento
Left behind for the living

So moving in its stillness.

The sun shining down
Peaceful.

A robin lay lifeless at the base of a tree
The symbol of spring's arrival
The symbol of new life
Now representing death
Death is beautiful

(this is what happens when you're sick and you take a lot of dayquil/nyquil and watch way too much Dexter)
