It all seems so surreal.
I see from my bubble.
The world pass by with fear writ large on faces, and eyes large and uncomprehending……how? why? what? So many questions……but no answers are certain.
I see from my bubble.
Hungers rise sky high, basic sustenance become a question mark, lives are uncertain. One does not know one day from the next.
I see from my bubble.
Masks, face shields, gowns, …. all are cloaked in layers of protection, an attempt to be invincible.
I see from my bubble.
The hands of the clock seem to stand still. The world suspended in a time frame……the present a nervous mix of hope, fear and uncertainty and the future….. a question mark.
I see from my bubble.
A greeting incomplete without a hug. A Hello only through technology. No standing face to face. No cosy chats to warm our hearts.
I see from my bubble.
Images of cloaked people frozen in time…..like the twilight embracing all….today is gone…. but will tomorrow be the same? safe?
It all seems so surreal.
Just watching it all pass by….. like a haze…..will I wake up one day for it all to be a big bad dream?
Am I living in a bubble?
