Mar 2020
Who will I be?
Who will I be
In this quarantine?
Who will I find
Inside my mind?
Who will be there
When all others have gone?
Who do I become
When I am one?
Once I was a doctor
Laying hands on pulses
Once I was a gardener
Pushing my fork through thick earth
Once I was singer,
Making music on stage
Once I was player
Playing games with the playful
Once I was barman
Pouring lager in tall glasses
Once I was sportsman
Scoring points in open spaces
Now I am held captive
By the edict of a virus
Now I am a prisoner
Without bars, held at home
Now I need to find
The key to my identity
Now I have to unlock
The window of my soul
Now that my armour
Has been locked away
Now we will see
Who I will be
My castle is closed
My tribe is remote
My diary is empty
All happenings undone
Now we will see
Now we will see
Now we will see
Who I can be
