So Very Much Poem by Gert Strydom

So very much I want to be with you
but with a virus days just run on,
while humanity fears something deadly

and to pieces I am longing for you,
while a lock-down do keep us apart
but with a virus days just run on

and you are very important and special to me,
where this thing makes life difficult,
while a lock-down do keep us apart,

while it touches all of humanity with death,
and no one knows how long it will last,
where this thing makes life difficult

and government prohibits travel and other freedoms,
where every day I just become more sorrowful
and no one knows how long it will last,

while God does still keep each person in his hands.
So very much I want to be with you
where every day I just become more sorrowful,
while humanity fears something deadly.
