I'm From 2020



I am from behind the mask,


From the empty streets and closed store fronts,


I'm from the fear in the eyes of those who pass.



I am from the empty space that moves through the house that used to be a home.


From the loneliness and lies that seep through the walls,


I’m from endless time spent thinking how we got here.




I am from the piano that used to ring through the walls,

From the overwhelming smell of turkey dinner,

And the sound of Disney Channel flooding the upstairs.





I am from the infection

From the suffocating infection that took the space away from space

I’m from the lost time.



I am from the walks that never ended


From the sound of the news that never stopped playing


I am from 2020.
