In the race of likes and shares
Our minds are tangled in wires
Trapped in a network of webs
Tapping screen till our thumbs hurt
Seeking the pleasure; that we shall never get
I wish we had not become the zombies we are today
Depending on tech and calling it a need
Disconnecting ourselves from what is important;
Just to make our lives easier, a never ending greed
We forgot to look away from the white curtains
Showing us an illusion;
providing us a temporary escape from our burdens.
