Drifting Islands

we were an island.
all fit together...

then suddenly we broke.
COVID 19, tore us apart...

floating islands.
of our families...

don't you want to float together?
if we had each other...

what would we say?
in 10 years... 

we will look back.
our island snapped.

can we rebuild? 
make some chain links

grasp to the metal...
drag yourself towards each other

reform those planets... with your
friends your schools your family friends

your favorite places to be.
how do we make those chain links?

    and the decay of aging
