Our corona diary.

[Text and photo by Amarjeet Kaur]

I close my eyes in self-isolation from corona… and I see
the pain around the world
i think of those who have lost
those who are scared

i see humans understanding
the common shared pain
without any race, religion, gender or class

then i close my eyes
wish for the good days
i see hope, for a better future
and people coming out
after fighting their battles
grateful to be alive
hugging, kissing

then i see
happiness, love
without boundaries
without discrimination
human to human
heart to heart

and then i know
we will see each other again.
