Growing Up

On a hollow morn fill with joy Shinny and peaceful as Easter Had I known that daddy wasn’t happy As he said, be quite as words followed Daddy did He did say Easter bunnies have crossed the road And gone are they He murdered you dear Easter bunny Terrified and sad I grabbed my pillow Alone I want to be Daddy did say those horrible words Easter bunnies do not exist, although you did At least in my little tiny happy chocolate world Daddy did make me believe in your existence Tis the Easter bunny, thee carried gold and grey chocolate eggs From house to house for all around the world Lovely in fight for motivation in deep grief Daddy did always say Jesus said: I am resurrection and the life He who believes in me will live, Even though he dies So do I believe That you will live again My dearest Easter bunny
