Fifteen Days More
If I won't then who would go
To a place tomorrow could be a 'no'?
Where risk of dying is higher than living
Because PPE they are seldom giving.
If I would cry then who would stand still
When their families hope is below the hill?
I must stay for them to say 'goodbye'
To a loved one who is about to pass by.
If I choose to stay safe and sound
After this pandemic can I stand the ground
When I swore I would not turn my back
Even when things are not on the track?
Now we have fifteen days more
Stay at home and close your doors.
