Coronavirus Will Not Define Us

Many times have we been separatedby walls Built by the iron fist of the callous dictator But now we have a wall build by necessity One to protect us from a vastly growing plague Just as there is protection in fortitude One can find strength in solitude And one must learn to accept the self The self that has its own surety The self that it's own accountability The self that sees beyond barriers And finds the hope that only it need find For the sake of finding its own strength and reason And nothing else of vane appearance There are many who will find pain There are many who will find loneliness There are many who will seek to self medicate Yet there are some who find patience Some who will find wisdom Some who will find their long lost voice Of the passions of their hearts calling It is now we are challenged like never before To make the most of less and become greatly more And to this I say from my very core Coronavirus will not define us We will define ourselves
