In The Window Of Hope

We love to see the world bright

But admittedly the world looks grey

Are we to continue our greedy fight

When we have become a common prey

Or do we stand in unity to show our might

To work day and night but also stand to pray

The world is now in fear

Suddenly we now value “dear”

Sadly we now can’t be near

Who’s next?

Who’s free?

Are we all not the same?

The greed deemed wise

From his actions the “fool” bleeds

What’s right?

What’s wrong?

We leave it to power

Corrupt or not, we bear the results

Are we not tired of being tired?

From case 1 to case 1000

Are we to wait for a jury?

I must say; we all just want to live

A common enemy on our streets

But even those at home, aren’t immune

So wash hands as much as you can

Sanitize your space and be safe

Some see it a test

Some think of it as a curse

Whichever way you try to stay safe

We should never cease to pray
