This is now history to thy ears | B |
years after centuries | C |
The year | D |
It appeared the invisible enemy | E |
- | |
In our ears it sounded impossible | F |
At times we quarrel endlessly | E |
Some in defense of its existence | G |
And the odds in supporting | H |
Days folded symmetrically | E |
Yet our eyes covered by the blanket | I |
The very dark one of confusion | J |
- | |
A week and days passed | K |
But like in a blink | L |
Stories of massacre spread all over | M |
Horrendous tales of thousands | N |
Victims departing from the world of living | H |
- | |
Negligence And carelessness | O |
Blind folded the eyes of many | E |
As they kept their old ways | P |
Those of wandering And exploring | H |
The predator hide deep in their souls | Q |
As they travel around the globe | R |
Hospitality and wellbeing | H |
They were welcomed wherever they go | S |
- | |
Unknowingly with kisses of happiness | O |
And hugs of friendships | T |
Handshakes of humanity | E |
The invisible demon kept on spreading all over | M |
With heart filled with Joy | U |
Human kind were exposed unknowingly | E |
- | |
The whole world were exposed | V |
Captured under the darkness | O |
Unbroken chains held everyone prisoners | W |
From the royal clan | X |
To the lowest | Y |
From the wise | Z |
Down to the foolish | A2 |
We were all paralyzed | B2 |
- | |
The educated fought a bitter war | C2 |
Days of no rest | D2 |
And nights without slumber | M |
They tried to eradicate the enemy | E |
But all to no avail | E2 |
As the universe crashed down | F2 |
They decided to call it the Great invisible | F |
The Covid | D2 |
- | |
For the first time in my eyes | Z |
Beholding the Wiseman bowing their heads down | F2 |
The Great presidents | G2 |
The members of the cabinets | H2 |
The church leaders | W |
The richest and poorest | D2 |
The head of our communities And | D2 |
The people at large | I2 |
- | |
We all surrendered | D2 |
All our positive Hopes wiped away | J2 |
There were no more happiness | O |
No public gathering | H |
No hugging and kissing | H |
We called it social distancing | H |
For we never knew who were possessed by the demonic enemy | E |
We called it Corona virus | O |
- | |
There were no more friendship | K2 |
Neither brotherhood | D2 |
Nor sisterhood | D2 |
Humanity lost its value | L2 |
Everyone behind the locked doors | M2 |
That seemed to be the only solution | J |
Yet tears of hunger and poverty flooding the streets | N2 |
- | |
As I am writing this | O2 |
It emerges the word quarantine | P2 |
A perfect substitute for imprisonment | D2 |
I only got little courage | Q2 |
The little ego about the future | M |
And to you that is the present | D2 |
Am locked in my own chosen cell | R2 |
- | |
My only hope is nothing more | C2 |
But only a drop | S2 |
If possible by the last chance | T2 |
Let the new world | D2 |
The one that is to come | U2 |
Remember my words | V2 |
And honour our existence | G |
In the present that is now history | E |
