Need of Our Uncertain Times

by Shernaz Wadia

Loneliness grapples

with itself on social media

I sense sleepless eyes

flecked with concern, stress, terror

hands reaching out for hugs

palms wanting warmth

make me stretch out mine

but I can’t reach them.

In these uncertain times,

words rarely hold

the weight of their meaning

I sit in silence, sending out vibes

of love, light, hope and peace
