Confined in my quarters
For uncountable days now
Can only get out
To run a few miles
And see a few faces
Along the way
No real interaction
Just a smile
And a wave
As I jog on past
For the rest of the hours
I’ve just been
Me in my head
With a few moments
Of reaching out
To familiar voices
Hammered out in text
Across computer screens
To keep me sane
