“Dear America”

I hear your cries, muffled by masks.

I hear your sirens, blaring with fear and uncertainty.

I hear your new silence, filling the once busy streets of the life we all knew.

I carry your burden of guesswork, frantically trying to piece the puzzle together.

I see your people, prisoners in their own homes.

I am your children, being ripped out of my cocoon.

I know your boundaries, invaded by an invisible enemy.

I know your economy, crushed by isolation.

I know your heroes, the overplayed and the unsung.

I hear you, America!

You are strong, America!

We will fight, America!

We will win, America.
