Walk among the people, Notice them, earbuds in, faces down. Only aware when traffic gets busy, When the sidewalk begins to crowd. A crowd, yet people don't bother talking, Because technology is too loud. Social interactions, Devolved, Pushed onto social platforms Where numbers value our memories, Numbers influence our personalities. We are the silent generation, Where our voices are heard by few, Drowned out by those that voice for the many, Because we are just numbers, comments, or likes. Hidden, Under a post.

We are the silent generation, Where our voices are heard by few, Drowned out by those that voice for the many, Because we are just numbers, comments, or likes. Hidden, Under a post.
