There were many days I suffered in solitude


    and now the world collectively shares my pains.


    For while everybody remains at home to brood


    their hopes and dreams slowly circle the drains.


    I wouldn''t wish this pain on anyone, that''s for sure


    as we''re forced to let the pandemic run its course.


    Enjoying this book? Seek out the original to ensure the author gets credit.But this is a tiny taste of what some of us endure


    the silence that comes with separation and divorce.


    Our days feel like months, the months like years


    as the postponing drives many mad with paranoia.


    This anger you see is normal, as are the many tears


    it''s like waiting for the longest winter to finally thaw.


    Though this lock down lasts longer than we prefer


    even it will come to an end, as nothing lasts forever.
