Some of us

Isolation;

A thine where the world emits chaos,
And our minds find peace
For those of us who don't live simple lives
A break like this is what we need to survive;

That's not to say we don't care about the deaths
But more to say we just need to take a breath
In a world like this, it's hard to relax
And a situation like this allows for that;

The lack of pressure to get up out of bed
That lack of pressure to get up, get dressed
That lack of pressure to make our way to school
That lack of pressure to make small talk in the carpool;

All of these things bring us peace
And believe me, we need this release;

For some of us, our minds are a tunnel
You never know how far you'll go
Falling down the deep dark hole
Yes, there are new challenges to face
But for some of us, we no long feel like we're being chased;

The constant emails from supposed support staff screech today a stop,
Like they just realised it was a red light
This sounds like a bad thing, but
For some of us, it's easier to cross the road if the car stops;

I know this doesn't apply to all,
But for some of us,
More than you realise
These situations help some of us to survive;
