If I could look back and change everything

I would.


Fails have surpassed the wins

Lives have been lost

Times have been changed

Not for better

But for worse


As America drives the hearse

Dark and gloomy, full of never ending darkness

This virus has affected us the most.


The silent assassin working in mysterious ways

Infecting most, that have been left astray


Isolation and commitment

To what is a battle

To find a cure, which was once not worth while


As I write this poem

Line by line

I realize that I am not able to find

A true solution to this assassin


Will it ever end truly?

The world may never know


But it is best to stay clean

Because we are in the middle of

COVID-19


The author's comments:

I chose to write this poem because of the world we are living in currently. Things are beginning to change, but we are still in the midst of a pandemic.
