Whitney

I never took the time, to change the world
Always thinking about
The path ahead
What I may face
And how my life might change
When I should be focusing
On the present
The unjust in our society
Litter that covers our planet

We dedicate a day
To honour
Those no longer with us
Whom lost their lives
To save ours
Paying the ultimate sacrifice
We call this special occasion…
Memorial Day

Human blood

We dedicate a day
To honour
Those no longer with us
Whom lost their lives
To save ours
Paying the ultimate sacrifice
We call this special occasion…
Memorial Day

**** 

Human blood

Secrets we hold
Tight in a balled up fist
Refusing to let them free
For all to see
Even those we trust 
Don’t know everything
So who truly knows me?
Whom can I trust with my deepest darkest secrets?

Pitch black 
Night owls stalk their prey
I lay upon my bed
Sleep soundly 
Listening to the wonders of nature
Flow from my wide open window
They sooth troubled thoughts
Magicly relaxing my body

Your name, COVID19
Creates storm clouds
Send tornados tearing around my brain
Wrenching my collected thoughts apart
Placing ideas together 
That make little sense
Throwing away the little progress I’ve made
