In the Eye of the Storm

Lili Diaz-Silveira

“In the Eye of the Storm”

Deaths in a copious amount Thrown inside against our will Positive tests that we must take into count The world seems as if its in a standstill

Masks mandated all over Online school crushing our minds This pandemic is having its takeover There is no time to unwind

Our conscience is consumed by worrying This pandemic has thrown our minds into war We must be hurrying This cannot go on much more

Social isolation has placed us into a whirlpool of mental illness But there seems no way to inform We all just pray for stillness We are just simply in the eye of this sickening storm

Can Only Go Up...
