Stepping Out
Stepping out of a cocooned existence
Something inside is showing resistance
Voices whispering the consequences
Teasing me tentatively back to my senses
Stepping out to seek normality
Infused with a kind of irrationality
Wanting to wade into a waiting world
Fearing the virus could again be unfurled
Stepping out to breath with other souls
Daring not to breach critical controls
Glimpses of faces only seen on screens
Praying for immunity and viable vaccines
Stepping out to a world that’s been missing
Instead of just sitting and reminiscing
Sounds and sights will seem so fresh and new
The importance of life now clearly in view.
