you
so
much
that
your
existence
became

when
you

Social media...

Why has this virtual world become our master...

Each of us trapped in a bubble with only an outside view of a synthetic life we wrongly chase after...

Will it be too late for us when we eventually realise it's just been one great big disaster?
intoxicated by lyrics and smoke
sobered by the hearts broke
high on lips and skin
low when pain sinks in
anxious for his love
depressed from her rejection
trying to make poems rhyme
giving up on any hopes of perfection

And there's nothing else
You could think about

The sound of her voice
The smell of her hair

One day you're
Crazy about her

One day you'll find yourself
Awake in the dark

Thinking about
What you should've said that night
Until the dawn breaks
And paints the sky colors you thought were hers

But the thing is
*That's all she'll ever be.

We were
Nothing but
Endless games of
Hide and Seek
and
Make-believe
i want to feel whole again
you planted
roses
in my heart,
daisies in my
mind,
lilies in
my eyes
and left
all them
to die.
