Covid-19, You Have Revealed Your Heavy Heart Poem by Namukolo Covic

COVID-19 you indeed are not a friend, you have a heavy heart
No, not a friend, when you bring so much misery upon us
You kill grandparents and pretend to spare the young
How can they be spared when you take away their parents

COVID-19 you indeed are not a friend, you have no heart
You kill fathers, mothers, grandmothers, grandfathers
Those you leave behind, you take away their jobs
How do you expect people to live, you cruel one?

COVID-19 you indeed are cruel, you have a heart of stone
Children do not know when school will be
Adults do not know when work will be
If work starts, no one, not even you know for how long

COVID-19 you indeed must go, may vaccines get rid of you
You will not be missed by mothers and fathers
You will not be missed by grandmothers and grandfathers
You will not be missed by children

COVID-19, you have revealed your heavy heart, you must leave us now
