Social Distancing Isn't So Bad


I don't see why people are panicking

Because you can't see your friends?

Get some clarity

We live in an age where our bedrooms never end

where our voices are spoken from distances afar

Come on guys, it's not that hard.

There is no boredom if you have some books,

call up your friends

learn how to cook

pull out that dusty old board game

the one you always thought was lame.

Make a group chat, or download discord

you act like staying connected is a chore.

And yes, it may suck to stay inside,

and it may seem that you have to hide.

But the point of this is to keep people safe

at the end, you'll be okay.

So stay safe, check your mentality.

Remember this reality:

The only one keeping you bored is you

you just haven't decided to do something new.
