�╭✿╯A powerful poem (parts of which I removed) which I stumbled across and had to share... So much truth in these words...
'The irony of life:
So suddenly...
New York,
'the city that never sleeps'
is now asleep,
all quiet.
'the city that never sleeps'
is now asleep,
all quiet.
Paris,
the 'centre of romance'
lives in shadows and echoes.
the 'centre of romance'
lives in shadows and echoes.
Rome,
'the eternal city'
is deserted.
'the eternal city'
is deserted.
Disney is out of magic.
London is caged in silence.
Mecca is empty.
The Chinese wall is no longer a fortress.
The Great nations are speechless.
The developed World is suddenly on its knees.
Churches,
Mosques,
Great Parks,
Monuments,
Stadiums...
are filled with unfilled vacant spaces.

The busiest places at present were previously the most dreaded:
Hospitals and Cemeteries.

The famous Football Leagues,
the Fashion Shows,
Exotic Weddings,
Festivals...
all lost to memory.

all lost to memory.
Celebrities have run out of celebrations.
Our titles,
Statuses,
Privileged Positions
are stale and are no longer major attractions.

With all of our 'citizenship' badges
we cannot step out of our houses.
we cannot step out of our houses.
With all our savings in gold and cash,
we can only buy food to eat.

We grew accustomed to animals in cages,
now animals roam our empty streets,
observing us in our 'cages'.

With our expensive clothes and shoes,
and vanity...
our house clothes and pyjamas are the latest fashion.

AND despite all these 'oddities'...
the World still goes on;
the sun still shines;
and the birds still sing.
the World still goes on;
the sun still shines;
and the birds still sing.
When this long night is finally over
and a new day dawns,
let us not forget the lesson of the long night -
that the only essential is LIFE,
the rest are but dispensable prefixes and suffixes -
BUSY EMPTINESS.
