Covid-19OutbreakContagious, infectious,Breaking, prowling, taking,It’s terrifying the world.Pandemonium
It is okay to feel alone
You still have some good friends to phone
It is okay if you are the only person to wipe your own tears
But don't forget there are people whom you are very dear
I know how cruel was this year
This pandemic teaches me,
Home confinement is not fun and easy,
Be productive, pick a hobby!
This pandemic teaches me,
The world is in jitter
Human lives do matter

Vaccine need of hour.
Healthcare in jeopardy
Management very tardy
Disease a callous malady
Million lost in fatality.

Is there a better illustration of this truth than the pandemic Corona
Eight billion people of world are facing every day, every hour, every minute

I never thought
Our world would stop
Like this, due to covid
Things will become catastrophic
And Nations will be shocked
I never thought
I never thought
I will be locked
Shhh! Can you hear that?
Can you hear the silence?
It's killing you slowly;
Mince to mince.
Look at those people around you,
Suffering the same thing that you do.
They were enjoying peace;
Like everyone she too had a dream of her own
A dream not something impossible to achieve
A dream for which she dared even the deadliest virus
Working days and nights doing what she loved
And so it came, this wave, a curse, wild storm
And so it came, this wave, a curse, wild storm
Strange stilling howl, alone we froze at home
Strange stilling howl, alone we froze at home
I worry for tomorrow, will there be another day?
I try to stay strong, but the pain won't go away.
We're consumed by this anguish, trapped in solitude.
WE are the priveledged ones,
taking these deaths as our time to have fun.
WE are not affected and WE cannot be told what to do,
as the rest of the world stands silent and blue.
2020 came with an attitude
Can you feel its magnitude?
Far & wide, longitude, latitude
I guess we are all screwed
It began with wings,
leathery skin of a night dweller.
Hiding in plain sight under the veil of darkness.
It could not live nor die, it only was.
Coated in toxicity and bathed in the very blood that worshiped it.
Today has made me feel very dark
For the last month it gets dark and adds a pain to my heart
I don’t miss the school or the stupid fools in it
But I miss the time away from home
