Social Media Romance…

Looking at these screens, our sweet kisses left social media stains,

I wrapped my arms around her and asked how words would affect change,

We were lovers, dripping in the each other's emotions, enjoying the attention,

Now, sitting on the couch while words are muted, technology has stolen our direction.

I've had a long day, scroll on past,

I need a cuddle, swipe left or right,

It's just another, social media romance!

You need me for one of your chats,

Silence across the table on date night?

It's just another, social media romance!

There's so much more about me if you would look up from that screen,

I'm part of the world, but you seem to have forgotten how we dream,

We're blinded to what we've become, and what we've become is lost reality,

Let's put the phones down, for the sake of love, we both have a responsibility.

Another sleepless night, candy crush, animal farm, do you see the real harm?

I want to say something, but it's not as exciting than the Tik-Tok stars!

I just want a normal conversation instead of Snapchat, Instagram or Facebook wars,

Let's lay our heads on the pillow look at each other without a screen, and actually talk.

I've had a long day, scroll on past,

I need a cuddle, swipe left or right,

It's just another, social media romance!

You need me for one of your chats,

Silence across the table on date night?

It's just another, social media romance!

Is romance dying?
