The days are long
With no end in sight.
_____________________
Each slight
Feels heightened,
Every feeling hits us heavily
Like a week of stormy nights.
_____________________
No end to our discomfort,
No answers to our questions.
_____________________
All hell seems to break loose
In our hearts
And all around us.
_____________________
Where do we go,
When does it end?
How do we know
Who’s our foe
Or friend?
_____________________
When the one we battle
Is sight unseen,
Place unknown?
