Screen Time
Stress, pain, sadness
My emotions take over my body
As I just want to let every scream out
Every tear out
And everything from keeping me happy out
But I can’t
I can’t feel stress
I can’t feel pain
I can’t feel sadness
I’m too young
As I feel like weighted down by these feelings
The feelings fades as I stroll through tiktok
The feelings burns out as I stroll through YouTube
The feelings numb as I waste time
I waste time
I waste time relying on technology
I waste time watching unnecessary
I waste time just to feel happy
But what defines my happiness?
My phone?
Why?
As I realize this problem
I’m going to change
I’m going to stop relying on technology
I’m going to limit myself from watching unnecessary videos
I’m going to stop wasting time
I’ll spend my time writing
I’ll spend my time creating a club to start change
I’ll spend my time researching major issues I care about
I’ll spend my time making the best out of it
Life is too short
Time is too short
But it doesn’t matter how long we’re on this earth
Our life and time is define by our actions
Our actions that we decide to make
Our actions that we learn from
Our actions that doesn’t waste time
I will stop wasting time
