In silent streets where whispers fade,
Beneath the masks, our fears invade,
The world once vibrant, now a shade,
Of memories, in shadows laid.

Hands that once embraced with glee,
Now distant waves across the sea,
Eyes that search for what might be,
A future where we all are free.

Heroes rise in cloaks unseen,
Battling foes without a sheen,
In homes and hearts, a quarantine,
A fight for hope, a war serene.

Yet through the storm, a dawn will break,
With lessons learned, new paths we’ll take,
Together strong, for humanity’s sake,
A brighter world we shall remake.
