A strange world
Strange is this new world! Anonymous fear, All pervading, A fragile trust, Wary trepidation, Lonely roads, Shuttered and desolate, Caged minds, Barred souls, Afar.

Life stalled
A day passes, All into nothingness, Life stalled, Stupefied, Frozen in time, Doing something, But nothing. World outside, Moving by, You watch inanimated. A fear gnaws, Wary of people around, Afraid to tarry, Or anything to carry, Scared to touch, And feel a warm hug, Trust gone for a toss, Doubting all that was loved.… Continue reading Life stalled
