I miss ...

I miss my school, my friends.
I can't stand thinking that
when I go back, everything will have changed.
The people who I'm close to may no longer be there.
Because schools are closed the things I love to do are being cancelled.
I miss knowing that whenever I need a hug,
I can just look over at my friends and feel better.
I miss knowing that on Monday morning, 
everything will be OK.

    Why does it feel
    like I'm being pushed back to the
    lonely

    days of 2020

    something no one knew about
    it was strange and confusing
    and made me hurt with longing

     Things are getting better
    but still not great
    only just barely good compared to what we had before...

     We were so lucky
    to have our friends always by our sides
    literally!

    So yeah it has gotten better
