There is a dull hum in my brain tonight. Thoughts form quickly and fade just as fast. I stare at a blank wall, not sure what I am looking for Waiting for a good feeling that will last.

Will their names be remembered? Or will their stories get lost in time? Some died alone and some while the world watched.

Good evening all! It’s been awhile since I have donned the writing cap as of late. Ironic I suppose since I have more free time these days with the whole Covid-19 cluster going on.

Tears, unwanted roses, wind and rain. Standing outside looking at what’s left of my love Die and slink down the drain.
