cry | COVID-19

Miguel M. Morales


Strange, 
I have not 
cried from 
the horror we 
are enduring.

Instead, 
I have cried 
because of 
the beauty 
in kindness and 
in song and 
in voices and 
in smiles and 
in laughter. 

I legit cried 
watching a 
livestream of 
ocean waves 
crashing on a 
Hawaiian beach. 

But I know that
bitter cry is
coming ...
