2020


What an unforgettable year we thought 

was going to be a new start for us.

But the ruination started with hate.

Assassination of Qasem Soleimani, via drone strike.

Impeachment trials for President Trump.

Devastating losses, such as Kobe and Gianna Bryant, 

via helicopter crash killing others as well.

Presidential race dropouts.

COVID-19 taking over, massive pandemic coming 

from China herself.

A year barely beginning and we’re in quarantine. 

Public places closed, people unable to work to pay bills,

Birthdays can’t be celebrated and stores having chaotic crowds.

With Economic failure approaching faster, we are 

supposed to rely on the high powers to get us through these

misfortunes and tough times

most times we can’t…

but what tragic event will happen next? How will it affect us?

When will it be over? Or maybe it’s only beginning. 

2020, will no doubt be historic.
