This moment, everything seems split in two
How I want to strangle my father
But my heart seizes when he coughs
How I long for a hug
But rejoice in my aloneness
How I pray for rain
But turn my face towards the sun
How each day drags
But the weeks fly past at speed
How I’m reading more than ever
But can’t concentrate on the TV
How I long for foreign shores
But appreciate my little corner of the world like never before
These strange times have turned everything on its head
How I want things to go back to the way they were
But I don’t
Very good! Love how the contrasts work. Resonates really well with the current situation, as I experience it.
