Time, please fast forward

I miss the days where I lived blissfully in my freedom

Now, there is uncertainty and an unprecedented social awkwardness.

The air is filled with anguish and fear.


Time, please fast forward

A microscopic giant has instigated worldwide chaos,

Radically changed our behaviors,

Taken too many lives.


Time, please fast forward

Families separated, lovers apart, elderly isolated

Loneliness is heavy in our hearts.

But our will to be together again is even greater.


Time, please fast forward

Now, the monster is worse: ignorance

News filled with people who have died in a inhumane way.

All because of the lack of Education.


Time, please fast forward

Tell me Time, when will our people spread love, compassion and respect instead of hate?

Tell me Time, when will we judge the other solely based on their actions and not things that are completely out of our control?

Tell me Time, when will we learn from our Past and create a better Present and a prosperous Future?


Time, please fast forward 

Give comfort and peace to those who have lost,

Lead us to a better world.

Shine your light upon us.


Time, please fast forward.
