Only a Screen Separates Us

We hold our breathes
For fear of drowning
In the arms
of Coronavirus.
The darkness trickles in
So we take refuge
In our homes.
Days pass
Boredom reigns.
All the small things we took for granted
Walking.
Talking.
Freedom.
But it's the only way.
We all sit at our desks
Typing away.
Only a screen separates us.
Only a screen saves us
from Nature's revenge.
As we huddle in our homes
our eyes change
our way of thinking changes.
People everywhere
realizing their mistakes,
errors,
flaws.
And so we heal.
When the world navigates through this terrible storm
we will all come out of it
tired, sad but
also healed.
The world will have changed.
Will we change too?
Yes. We must.
Only a screen separates us.
But our light burns on.
Fighting the darkness.
Thank you, all.
