Unknown Friends

Scared by the eerie feeling of silence

I looked around in the hunt for sound

Silence, search of which I yearned

Today, i find it all around

I see empty trains and stations

Are these scenes from horror movies

Horror movies make me sick

I am scared to get a prick

To save myself, I go in a empty shell

In the calmness, my heart rings a bell

It’s not war, like people say

They don’t know how to behave

I am protected, and I am secure

I have the support of the very brave

I am grateful to be alive

I am here to survive

I am because of the unsung heroes

I am because of these unknown friends

To all those servicing men

I owe you a big one

When life gets back to normal

You will be remembered for what you have done

Thank you!
