CORONA VIRUS

There’s a pain in my heart for those who have gone without a goodbye.

There’s a pain in my heart as I lay awake with an overwhelming sadness it’s hard to shake.

There’s a pain in my heart for the gripes and the snipes the moans and the groans of the selfish.

There’s a pain in my heart from being apart from the ones that I love.

There’s a pain in my heart for I cannot come and open the door to welcome you in.

There’s a pain in my heart when I think of the day and the part we will play for we will be together again.
