I am writing this for everyone that has lost a loved one to the virus Covid-19.

Some blame the workplace, or point their fingers at those that didn't follow the guidelines, others the authorities for their poor decisions, but I know who the thief is. You came into my family and stole what wasn't yours, more precious then gold and unreplaceable, but I know who the thief is. You stole away my family and friends so that I would have no support. No celebration of life, no hugs, no love, but I know who the thief is. You robbed me of my final goodbye. No holding of their hand, no saying "I love you" for that one last time. But I know who the thief is. You can not hide your evilness from me. I know who the thief is. You can change your appearance and travel to distant places, but you will never be able to hide, because I know who the thief is. Covid-19, you and only you are to blame, there is no sense trying to hide behind others. I know who the thief is.
