Covid-19

I write this poem here where i lay 
Where sunshine is gone i could only see grey 
Where babbles of a monster who refuse a weapon was told 
Not a fairytale of a monster that'll hug you and stab you 
But a monster who'll sneeze a life out of you 
And cough a casket to what remains of you 
This monster will handshake your father 
After a heart felt eulogy at your funeral 
Then Hug your sister with sympathy 
And come back for condolence visit the next day 
To dine with your mother 
The bloody monster that pauses the earth to rotate 

Covid-19 held us captives for a crime we're not sure of 
I see the way it move at high speed in the air
By passing every blind checkpoints of humanity 
Getting itself merged with everything that we cherish 
Covid took away every kind gesture we demonstrate love 
And turned us ninjas running from our loved ones 
What kind of a world survive without love but massacre 
Ask Venus or Mars, and move to Pluto to testify 
What do you do with our isolated souls in coma 
Tell us what to do with them for we've buried enough

Our world is sick and we're its symptoms 
We can defeat this monster plague if only we adhere 
Let's work together to change the red headlines on our screens to green colour of victory and freedom. 
Sanitize your hands regularly and stay Home and safe 
In the end, I wish you a happy new year in advance
