Everything Is Not Okay

The winds howling through the roof Booming down on the metal About to crash down in any minute now The wolf banging on the door Luring us to open it The black bloody hands Clawing through the cracks To our deaths I’ve been down, down, down The rain plummeting Down In my head and In my heart When alll of it seems to be going Against you The waves slapping you in the face Pushed and pulled in the crowds Of the Shibuya scramble crossing Spat in the face The virus spreading In my lungs In my brain In my heart Looking down at my feet Trying to walk as fast as I could To get back home as soon as I can Until there was a change of Abendrot aura in the air Golden rays shower upon us Streaking through the downpour Sunset in the rain, I whisper The smell of rain letting out The spectrum of light Revealing itself Peach colored peonies Lilac lavenders lathering in the skies A ribbon of a leprechaun’s treasure map I saw the starting point The pot of shimmering gold is near I breath in the mystic sight Head up And breath out Everything is not okay but It’s going to be okay Everything is going to be fine The world seems to say
