Inked with Love: Easter

 I love you. 

The words come easy to 

type, but stop at the crux 

of my throat. 

So I lend my heart to you, 

not through words, 

but through 

chocolate eggs, 

placed gently in 

your palm. 

I want you to eat well, 

to taste nourishingly 

and fully the 

splendours of our 

world. To savour the 

sweetness I can’t 

convey.

A 2nd year Bachelor of Psychology student based in Waurn Ponds focusing (mostly) on creative works as an ad-hoc writer. When not making coffees as a part-time barista, she likes to garden, watch films, and listen to music almost 24/7. Among her absolute pet peeves are predictable plots, terrible endings, and writer's block. Thrilled to be contributing to such an important outlet for Deakin's community, she's excited to see how the magazine develops moving forward.
