Epidemic
The sadness of this restrained life,
Our movements now captured and imprisoned,
knowing what we didn’t know or cared about,
The freedom we took for granted is gone,
Restrictions in everything, everywhere,
hardening our troubled hearts.
Fighting an invisible enemy,
With unsuitable tools, knowledge missing,
Behavioral patterns in our way,
This is a fight to the death,
It’s yours and your fellow man’s,
Know that in a war there are no winners,
This enemy takes no prisoners,
Surviving is the only game in town,
Are you ready? Can you change?
Unusual circumstances call,
For different beliefs and patterns
to be put aside with one common goal,
A united front of human strength,
All in the same ship, rudderless,
Navigating these troubled seas,
Searching for a safe port.
