Night has already fallen, and I am alone in the courtyard looking up at the stars. A crescent moon leads the way in the night sky. Stars accompany them on the left and right, near or far, light or dark. It seems like one by one is covered with the night sky. In fact, it is not many light years away.
At present, a new round of epidemics ravages my hometown. Friends, relatives, and neighbors I once met are all "silent" in this smokeless war. Neighbors from the door opposite can no longer sit around the street and chat. The colleagues who once worked together also returned to their own nests. People seem to be close to each other, but they feel far away. A small mask covers your and my face, and the free breathing of the past cannot be blocked. Even though it has been protected, the virus is still in the spotlight. Even if old friends meet, they will never dare to take off their masks again. It always feels like a meeting between strangers.
The streets that used to be bustling are now deserted and empty. Apart from the prevention and control staff, there are no more bustling crowds. In the face of the epidemic, you and me were helplessly isolated at home. One day, two days, three days..., every day, we pay attention to the latest progress of the epidemic. I wish the epidemic would end soon and see an orderly life. Throw away the mask and breathe freely.
The world outside is so beautiful. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you have no intention of watching it. There is a beautiful scenery but the building is empty. When will the unprecedented scene of crowds appear again?
You and I have today’s “silence” is working hard for the future without “silence”, and one day I will return my great mountains and rivers. Today’s quarantine is the hope of tomorrow. When all of us learn how to deal with the epidemic, that is the beginning of our new life. I hope that friends who are also fighting for the epidemic will continue to persevere, and those who are not in the epidemic area will pay attention to protection. The epidemic is not scary, just fear that everyone will work together to fight the epidemic.
