A Small Irony

• Save

Little bit funny and kind of sad to be an April fool,

Often feel like a pet plaything for a bored universe,

A herculean task to earn an ounce of love from it.

But that said, it does not owe a heartfelt apology,

Small things give hope, each inhale offers courage,

And even beneath scars, there is a ghost of a smile.

Turns out, nice people do exist and walk the earth,

Softening the fall back to reality from cloud nine,

Something of comfort, enough to keep on going.
