Can't seem to function without looking at the PHONE


Silent!

No sound no indication of people around/

become enclosed no way to be social/

locked in thoughts inside I've reverted back ; novice/

Phonless for a moment in hopes that we can get back to communicating/

what really matters you see it's not the post on social media/

at most that's what the focus is on/

hocus pocus when will we wake up and notice that it's an entity/

yet souls are empty/ scratching the surface/don't think you heard that/

people crying out to meet you in person not on some wacky dating site/

might I add it's more to it than what meets the eye/

Just because I like your post doesn't mean we have relations in real life/

it's all a game your being played it's all a myth / syntax and sentence structure

seem to be a thing of the past/open our eyes and put forth the effort to cherish things

which last/

Build relationships before we must caste our cares and they fly away/ high in the sky/

concerned here let's re- evaluate  (hashtag #Lifegoals) / and make it our goal

to live life before it's to late.
