Like a butterfly escaping its cocoon,
I take a step outside
Humid air filling my lungs
A wave of heat traveling over me
Three months I’ve been stuck inside
Waiting for the Earth to be cleansed,
Thousands die by the day
And ten thousand more heal by the week
The fog has disappeared over the cities
Not by nature,
But by mankind
Selfishly polluting our Earth
The virus is meant to be a wake up call
To those who take things for granted,
But now since we are back in our normal routine
Everything continues as it once had before.
