Dear Child
I am very sorry
We told you not to worry
It has been now an entire year
That we adults live in constant fear
You wisely ask what is so bad about dying
That we delude ourselves by its denying
You ask if we prefer not to live life at all
Incarcerated by the fright that did us befall
Polarized, we are in such devious strife
We can’t possibly live a sustainable life
Please show to us, adult women and men
How it is to behave responsibly again
That we should really listen and care
About others and the ideas they share
Dear child, it is now upon you that I call
Please take over the control
Let your divine and youthful light
Guide us out this dark night
So we leave this history behind
Compassion and empathy in our mind
Entering what we always dreamt of
A world of love.
