They say we’ll be affected.
Millions are to die.
Then they say don’t worry
as if we’ll give a sigh.
I know the world has problems.
We’ve had our share of pain.
I know so far we’re lucky
but it’s driving me insane.
What if my child does get it?
Is there nothing I can do?
I could not watch them slowly die.
Is the fear the same for you?
I’d like to keep them home now
at least until it’s done.
But that would not be living
and I’d frighten everyone.
It’s hard to hear ”It’s coming.’
The news is spreading fast.
I’m praying they are wrong this time.
Let’s not repeat the past.
