the blinking of a cursor opens the doors to possibilities
creation of worlds and relationships
but for me it reminds me of what i do not have
'list the 10 people closest to you'
8 of the 10 are family
people close to me due to blood relation and law
the last two slots remain empty
filled only with the steady rhythmic beat of the cursor
in a world where screens connect us, mine reminds me of how disconnected i am
that i lack social relations outside of my family
and who am i to tell my family that i am lonely when i have them?
who am i to tell them that i crave for relationships that are not mandatory and are instead of our own free will?
