Scarry Night

Blue skies, thriving flowers, rushing water, awakened animals. I watch my breath, in and out, and wait for the puffy white clouds to surround me. But they don't come. Could spring truly be here?

The sky is filled,

with tiny, shimmering lights.

Some are big,

some are small,

but yet,

they all,

still shine. 

I can reach my arm out,

and try to grab the nearest one,

What I'm realizing,

is that we,

humans,

want for nothing.

We can get practically anything.

Some of us can't,

but if we all had the money,

we would be able to get anything.

We want to wait for this all to end.

We want to see where it ends up.

But sometimes what you want is not what you need.

Everyone is trying to keep their lives easy and simple,

and I don't see why not,

but why,

We are going through tough times.
The toughest of times.
For some, it may seem easy.
No, this is not easy.
The spread of a virus,
will never be easy.
Easy to live through,
easy to change,
easy to forget.
