An Open Letter To COVID19.

Written By Sivuyile Tshalana.

Corona Oh Corona...
I stand before you sickened by your actions.
I am quite disappointed by what you've done to our people, our communities and our countries.
We just cannot live in peace and harmony ever since you came to our households unannounced.
You on our minds, body, even on our different media platforms.
You're the talk of the town.
Are you proud of your what you've to us?
Aren't you exhausted of the results of your birth?

Corona Oh Corona…
I'm devastated by constantly hearing your effects on people's lives.
The world is at war with you.
Can't you feel the pressure of being on everyone's prayers, minds and mouths?
The bad thing is that no-one has the answers to fight you.
The world has came to a stand still.
We've been introduced to lockdowns and quarantine.
We were never ready for such things.

Corona Oh Corona… 
Our schools closed.
Most people are not working at the moment
Meanwhile others are working from home.
We don't know what will happen tomorrow but we still live in faith that we will defect you.
The deaths and heartache you’ve caused will come back to you.
By fire or by force we will overcome your suffering and pain.
Our healthcare, protection and essential services are working tirelessly.
Please stop it now Corona, we don’t like it.
