The beginning of the end


We're living in a time A time that will be written in textbooks A time not characterized by fib Future generations will read about us They will wonder and ponder How earth go on strike How did the world come to a halt?. Before the invisible enemy attacked We're accustomed to living our daily lives With little disruption and delay We can't even bear a hour of isolation When this nightmare assailed the world What we once deem as inconvenience We now see as blessings Forcing us all to realize the true importance of life Human connection is becoming a curse Haptic communication is now a *No* Heaven hear our prayers Heal the world For our dear world is sick. ©Ibratosyn'20 *Covid-19* 😭😭😭
