The virus sits between us uninvited
Interrupts our conversations
Finishes our sentences
Squashes in next to us on the couch
Crams fingers in our mouths
Searches through our pockets
Has read through our diaries
Has the largest serve
Makes the most noise
Steals our thoughts, our jokes, the last lines
Makes the clock ticking sound louder
Makes the room colder
Makes you ache all over
Makes me ache for you
