it seems to be, this time of year
we all strive to keep others near.
Hold them in our hearts so dear
To keep ourselves from lonely fear.
Yet in this time, and in this age
we are trapped in electronic haze.
An invisible unseen cage
Alone with thoughts, filled with rage.
Sending texts, writing thoughts
speaking makes us quite distraught.
In this world that we’ve wrought
A connection is all we’ve sought.
No one tries to get close now
They have forgotten how.
The phone in hand, the Tv on
That is all they need.
Its a horrible thing indeed.
We’ve forgot the trees, ignored the stars
Marveled that we’ve come so far.
Yet have we really? I think not
When i look at all we’ve forgot.
The simple sights, the cherished sounds
The things that loom all around.
Blinded by the screen
we have forgotten what they mean.
