#RealLife


Age of networking taking us by storm,

Introversion is now a dying breed.

Conversing through LCDs is the norm,

Identities hide in your social feed.

 

Breaking news, this just in: nothing at all,

Man thinks to himself drinking his coffee.

What matters most? It’s not your facebook wall,

Twitter can’t tell beauty life shows subtly.

 

Man lives life and then one day he dies.

Nothing noteworthy to tell the masses,

While those close care, the world remains unwise.

Men aren’t cherished in history classes.

 

Significant to you, nothing to most.

When you are fulfilled, there’s no need to boast.
