In the year of missing kissing

it was masks for simple tasks like queuing for bread

ditching foreign travel so we all stayed home instead

we swapped hugs for elbow rubs and waves from afar

coffees in the car instead of drinks with a friend

oh the fun of this year

Will it never end?
Anais Vionet Dec 2020
I'm wearing the same old clothes,
binging the same ol’ shows,
seeing the days anastomose.
and waiting for my vaccine dose.

I’m humming the same ol’ songs,
dreading the rerun dawns,
trying to at least appear strong,
but becoming angry and withdrawn.

I'm tired of the same old faces,
of being stuck in these boring places,
of feeling my nights are wasted,
and dreaming of friends embraces.

I'm writing the same ol’ verse.
becoming increasingly terse,
knowing it could be worse,
waiting for the end of this curse.
the 2020 blues is the new national anthem
Josie Stewart Dec 2020
Looking back on this turbulent year,
I see so many beautiful colors
which shine through any passing fear,
or incessant trials whether small or large.
I often get caught up in momentary
hardships, losing sight of all the glories
but if I neglect the good it carries
I may miss the opportunity for memories.

;
real as it is

she incurs the rigours

on her own in a void

far removed from rationality;

out of her element


esoteric whims float in and out

of her headspace;overruled

inexplicable visions,holographs;

phantoms from a past

seemingly remote

overshadow her mindscapes

adieu 2020

In this free world
I got confined
By my free will
Around four walls
Irony - All these years we were fighting for freedom.

The blossom

The flourish

Hitherto the withering

One backward glance

Time ravages beauty

Honesty
It is feeling
the genuine one

The year I've been me
No pretense
No act
I was never fine,
I've seen me be scared me

The confidence coat I've shed
I can see the marks
where I've bled
It is all on open
I am healing this time.

Something Kinda Hit me Today

I'm Sorry That I made You Hurt

You Ask For Umbrella

You Get The Rain

You Get The Rain

Your Lips Speaks of Love

But The Flowers Are Empty & Fake

The World Is A Trap,

Too Good to be True

Smiley Faces Behind
Tainted Windows

Croix de Lorraine
The Passover King And
The Maid of Orléans


Wicked Is Heart

Black Is The Soul

Everything Is Grey

And Sun Is Too Cold

Sun Is Too Cold

We Are The ******

We Are The Doomed

We Are The Devils That

They Made Us Into

They Made Us Into


Something Is on The way

The Sky is Our Ashtray

We Keep Walking in Circles

In The Neon Decembers of these

Dead end Streets,

Crocodiles roaming free

And Lions Are Sleep

You Stole My Eyes

To Take Back Your Soul

Fool In the Rain

Dead Feel No Pain

We Are A Symbol

And Symbols

Will Never Die
