When silence fell upon the streets,
And doors were closed with heavy hearts,
We found ourselves in still retreats,
Wondering when the healing starts.

The world once bustling came to rest,
A quiet calm in chaos’ wake,
In solitude, we faced the test,
And sought the strength that would not break.

Families gathered, though apart,
Through screens, we shared our days and nights,
In every home, a tender heart,
Yearning for the lost delights.

As time went on, we learned to cope,
Resilience in the face of fear,
With each new day, a spark of hope,
That soon, our loved ones would be near.
