Dedicated to the lives that were lost due to Coronavirus and their loved ones.




Ocean of Despair

In the ocean of despair
An ominous silence prevails
Where the thunder will strike?
No one knows...

Gasping for a breath
The heart stops.
Inconsolable souls around
The loneliness in their eyes.

The world breaks down
In bits and pieces
Scattered all around
That cannot be fixed.

In the emptiness of the night
The fire burns.
The hopes and dreams
It has engulfed all.

Sky is covered with grief
Raining tears from above
Drenched in pain and sorrow
There is no hope.

Looking back..
What went wrong?
There is no answer
In the ocean of despair.
