I Caught COVID

from A Song A Week 2023: Part One by Kate Sloan

/

lyrics

I took a trip to see my friend
& by the journey's end
I felt a tickle in my throat
"is that COVID?"

I barely slept; was hard to breathe
I would not let myself believe
the truth I didn't want to know:
that I had COVID

the rapid test confirmed my fate
now there was nothing but to wait
I stayed in bed; I got some rest
I got so bored I got depressed

I read too many posts online
from people with Long COVID
but now I'm almost feeling fine
thank god for Paxlovid

so get your vax; we know it helps
& wear a mask – protect yourself
I hope you never, ever catch COVID
I hope you never, ever catch COVID
