In the silence of the streets we wonder,
As echoes of laughter fade like whispers,
The world paused, a collective breath held,
Yet hearts beat stronger, dreams unbroken.

Through windows we gaze at distant skies,
Yearning for the touch of familiar hands,
In solitude, we find new strength,
Hope blooms amidst the unseen storm.

Masks hide smiles but not our spirit,
Together apart, we forge new paths,
Learning to cherish the smallest of moments,
Love’s light a beacon through the dark.

As seasons change, so shall we rise,
From shadows of fear to fields of promise,
A world renewed, resilient and brave,
Holding the lessons of yesterday close.
