| I looked out my window As we were driving through the town And I saw so many faces, so many stories People with passion in their eyes And people who were still finding that spark I saw doctors and nurses returning home for the first time in days And students trying to finish their school day from home Nothing the same as it used to be I saw teachers educating the next generation through screens And grandparents waiting alone so that they could see their families I saw people who were fighting battles alone And people who could only cheer on those battles from six feet away I saw businesses who were afraid of how long this would last And grocery store employees wondering what was next I saw so much despair and so much fear A world that had fallen apart and was just trying to piece itself back together But as I looked out my window I could see the beginnings of hope and start of something better than before |
