Stars
Stars
They sat together gazing the stars in the dark
Their hands clasped together in a helpless clutch
They knew that this may be their last night
There might not be one another day for them
As the sun rose, he got into his uniform
A soldier committed to saving his soil
She got into her protective plastic dress
She, a doctor, meant to save lives
Soon his blood-drenched the battlefield
And he died fighting till his last breath
The COVID virus caught her overworked body
Finally, she was wrapped in a plastic bag
Days and night rolled by, stars shone as usual
The world went on and, on its way, as usual
Little did anyone remember the two loving hearts
Who became extinct just for the people of the world.
