Friendship is now officially online
Don’t call or visit, drop a Facebook line
The years are shorter, moving too fast
Yet we spend most of it browsing iPads
We have lost connection to the real world
Chasing vanity, the life of celebrities
No longer talking face-to-face
Instead 24/7 Instagram, what a disgrace
We’re quick to show off our “dope” lives
Yet can’t articulate what our purpose is about
It’s all smoke we’re chasing, all emptiness
With no contentedness, only regret
How much longer will we live this way
Before we internally fully decay?
