Its Normal To Not Feel Normal
In that span of five minutes I had forgotten my name
The date the year the month the task of what I was gonna do today
I spend my times indoors and they say I save lives but i don't feel like it
Oh gosh the weather is so beautiful outside and people are freaking out
Acourse they don't feel normal but who is to blame their world is changing
So I guess what right now what should be normal is not feeling so normal
You will obviously have a wave of emotions strike you from all given directions
Your goals thrown off into somewhere different like a Christopher Columbus story
While your ship leaves the land of people who you have been connected with
6 feet doesn't seem that far but trust me you cant via bluetooth all the hugs you've missed
Like a payday that never arrived whether you're an introvert or not it's the simple reality
People need people but the ironic beauty is also were in this all together
Witnessing an event to last in the textbooks for future generations to listen and read on
You will be remembered as the strong that was able to overcome a pandemic of ages
Also to be remembered as the frantic who stocked up on too much toilet paper
Seriously guys I don't plan on wiping with sandpaper save some for me and everybody
But the real issue is the people who aren't getting the supplies they really need
Yea its nice to see you bought five hand sanitizer bottles but didn't leave any for anyone
Like the eldery with already going on battlefields underneath their skin in their bodies
Or the nuclear war zones of cancer patients trying to survive and finally get to go home
Ignorance and selfishness is the invisible pandemic fighting aside this current one
Realizing their are kids who have to see their parents everyday because they got laid off
Which really does suck but hang in there tight because doctors, nurses, and responders
Working day in day out are soon about to bring the cavalry and be our DC Marvel heroes we so desperately needed close to ending this calamity
My uncle sam would say today “I want you to quarantine today” Isolation today
For an ending pandemic tomorrow
