A World of Broken Hearts

By Tony Marcou

The book itself is mainly random poems of emotions but after saying that a lot of the poems are requests from friends asking me to write a poem for them which are actually true events.

I Was a Victim of Covid-19

It came out of China, in a place called Wuhan

A virus so deadly it threatened every woman and man

It spread like wildflower everywhere

No one was safe not here not there

Isolate, stay home, stay safe they say

We’ve gone into lock down, there’s no other way

Little did I know that a victim I would be

From this invisible enemy that no one can see

It enters my blood, and flows through my veins

By now it was called Corona by name

No cough, no sneeze no pain in my chest

Just this feeling of tiredness, I want to lie down and rest

Lacking oxygen in my blood there’s not much I can do

But then when I try, I seem to get breathless too

I can’t walk or breathe and struggle to open a door

I feel weak and tired and just pass out on the floor

I feared for my family, I feared for my friends

I thought that for me this was the end

But I won’t give up, no I won’t give in

I’ll fight this enemy from within

A Tiny Angel Named Angelos

You were born into a world that had decided your fate

Unsure of what we should do, we could only just wait

As the doctors tried in vain nothing could be done

You had lost your battle, and we had lost our beautiful son

You were tiny, you were fragile you were ever so weak

We had named you Angelos which means angel in Greek

Three times you
