Alone No More

A world upside down

Every day uncertain

Will your loved ones perish

Left for dead

Or be forgotten 

You try so hard

To protect the weak

To be so strong 

To no avail

Hungry for souls

The Grim Reaper descends 

In the midst of chaos

Something unexpected

So many in disbelief 

Or denial

Populations ravaged 

Plague is upon us

Anxiety abounds

Fears mount

Survival uncertain 

A sigh of relief

Alone I stand

No more
