So much in my mind to tell
Such a filled heart ready to yell
But no words come out
Silent, all that’s about
Weeks living in up and down
Days and hours spent in lockdown
Nothing by walls to run to
Not much left to do
Chit chat here and there
With many, from everywhere
Nothing but a lit screen
No touch, nothing green
Never thought would crave this much
For a simple, a single touch
An embrace of any type
A true hug, something kind
She told me, you’re just a woman
You’re yearning for something human
Do others also feel this way?
I wonder, as goes by the day
Judged by self love
I see those who live enclosed
No connections do they enjoy
Other people, just another toy
So here I lie, awake and sleepless
Longing, waiting, almost breathless
I trust the gut that says it’ll come
Soon enough you’ll be back home
And so when things become more clear
Wandering mind less puzzled as such
I tell myself
Believe, dear
What you ask ain’t that so much
