we are suffocating
in the plumes of silence
hopes and dreams
put on hold
uncertainty
in our present
plans shelved
for another tomorrow
a fierce struggle to live
while quietly dying
anger, isolation, despair
this too shall pass they say
… but not soon enough for some

We consol ourselves by ‘This too shall pass…’ Miserable time indeed.

You’re right, for some it will be the end. Very sad.
