I looked up in January
as customary(-ly)
I looked out in March
to combat novel allergies
Tho cities halt and countries crawl
I won't fear anyone
As long as we are side by side
We've got this crisis won
What are the odds
That we'd meet up now ?
We, whom knew love true
Revolving world
You - gone too soon -
from my side
at this time
But next thing I knew
Our love to heck you threw
My head was swimming
In a crazy confusing stew.
No reason found its depth as this new world abandons ship;
With deep deep sorrow
I let go of us
as you so dearly wished
What are the odds
That we'd meet up now ?
We, whom knew love true
Revolving world
You - gone too soon -
from my side
at this time
And all around the world implodes
I never thought I'd live to know
The bliss beyond the deepest grief
As the world we knew crumbles
My soul yet lives
What are the odds
That we'd meet up now?
We, whom knew love true ?
Revolving world
You gone too soon
from my side at this time
I never saw such sudden change
As minds and hearts grew out apace
When we are forced out of beliefs engaged,
Another world reveals our invisible gilded cage.

When beliefs and institutions held beyond lifetimes are illuminated to be not as they appear,
existence can yet hold timely importance.
