In silent streets where echoes fade,
A world once vibrant, now delayed.
Masked faces with stories untold,
In the quiet, our hearts unfold.

Time stretches like an endless sea,
Days blend in a strange reverie.
Yet hope flickers in distant eyes,
As we dream of clear blue skies.

Isolation’s heavy embrace,
Yet kindness finds a gentle space.
Through screens we reach across the void,
Finding comfort in words employed.

The dawn will break this shadowed time,
And we will rise with renewed rhyme.
Together, stronger than before,
A world united, evermore.
