An invisible enemy they say; illuminates the hidden lines.
An eerie silence creeps across the empty streets
All plundered into oblivion; enforcing isolation
An ill-feeling fills within me; burning my throat, making me gasp for breath.
It makes me scared as I try and fight it back.
My beautiful life shattered by this unknown enemy.
My world as I know it has come to a grinding halt.
I can feel the walls closing in on me, engulfing me in its embrace.
My head pounds, I am seeing but not comprehending.
My eyes that were once a window to my free-spirited soul now act as curtains that cover my sadness.
I look for the light, that one spark that can pull me out of this darkness.
Suddenly I feel a hand; hear voices of laughter hope and warmth.
I feel someone calling out to me, telling me to re-ignite my kindred spirit.
I Am drawn to the flame that gives me hope for a brighter tomorrow.
Each day fills me with simple joys; makes me grateful for what I have.
I can feel the heartbeat of my soul within, it’s making me whole.
My family holds my hand and they fill me with pride
They are standing strong by my side.
That’s when I realize that even in sickness this world is beautiful.
We just have to hold on to the hope that it will be better someday.
Till then let’s enjoy and stock up some empathy for our neighbors
Let’s all supply love and good energy, let’s all sing and make noise across buildings,
While we follow the rules of “Social Distancing”
And if nothing else we have the love of our family to get us out of this darkness.
And when all this has passed,
We can say, hope and love spread more quickly than the virus.
‘Cause I know that this is not the ending,
But also a place to begin.
