Pandemic Poem
What should I do
Should I be lazy
Should I be active
Should I take a chance
Should I play it safe
There’s too many screens
Not enough people
There’s no proper goodbyes
No proper greetings
No proper gatherings
I can’t do this any longer
I can’t play by the rules any longer
But then I hear something
But what is it that I hear
It’s the sound of laughter
It’s the sound of love
I have support from my family
I have love from my family
I can go on
I will go on
