It took the world by storm
It took too may lives
It crippled the world
It also changed something

It also gave us a present
The ‘time’ we lost
The ‘time’ we never had
The ‘time’ we never allocated

It gave us a real vacation
That our innerself really needed
From this never ending rat race
To recall and revisit our life

Just sit and relax
Buckle your memory belt
Take a trip down the memory lane
The rat race you ran so far

Whom did you meet along the way
Who made you laugh
Who made you happy
Who was there for you

Whom did you hurt
Whom did you fight with
Whom did you have conflicts with
Whom did you fall apart

Who hurt you
Who made you cry
Who did you hate
Who did you love

Now it’s the time
To think and react
To mend the broken relationship
To make a better future

Money you ran after
Work that made you busy
Never had time for anyone or anything
Has no meaning in life now

It’s people who care
It’s people who were there
Means so much in life and forever
All I am asking to fix the unfixable

Parents partner siblings children at home
Took them for granted never had time
Now its the time say that you care
Say what they mean to you

Someone far, take the phone give a call
Send a message or send an email
Say whats in your heart
Say that they are in your thoughts

Say sorry if you have to
Apologise for hurting anyone
Apologise for the pain you gave
Assure that you will be there

Nothing to fix with some
Just not in touch all those days
Never mind say hello now
Build the lost time and relationship

It’s not me it’s them
I hear you saying, still ok I say
You can still start the random act
To show that you care

Covid took so many lifes
But taught us many lessons
Acting upon those by taking right action
Is upto us …all I can say 🙏🏻

The love and care you show
Will be viral will spread in no time
No need to wash hands
No need of heart distancing
All I am saying take your mask off now
