Sacrificed For Political Sake

Nobody will ever know the real person that you were That glint of magic in your eyes, your giggle that warmed your families hearts. You chose to care for others. You chose to put people first. You stood in front of a virus for which you were ill prepared. Your government scoffed and scorned on the words your profession had to say. They chose to clap for you and your colleagues dying every day. You had so much to give. You cared for everyone. No matter what language they spoke no matter what colour their skin. Your government expected more and used your caring nature to plan their blame. They expected you to act like soldiers and give your lives fighting this thing. We will remember the sacrifice you were made to make. We will remember you, your profession and you people sacrificed for political sake.
