Paused

In a flash like lightning
Tragedy struck
The night came at dawn
And failed to lose its grip on mother nature
Work, schools, churches, events
All paused like they never existed
Hugs, handshakes dreaded
Like everyone is leprosy stricken
Circumstances have a way of changing
Our perspective of life
The death toll is on the rise every day
And bodies packed like goods being shipped
Life presents itself with things that matter most
Naira or dollars can’t buy everything
