Digital Divide

The glow of screens light up the room Our faces buried, losing touch Virtual bonds tether us close But true connection feels too much The world at our fingertips Yet worlds apart we start to drift As we scroll endlessly through All the things we'll never do Wired up but feeling low Where did the sparks go? Living digital, loving virtual Is a heart of code enough to know? Video chats and filtered snaps Leave our souls unsatisfied DMs and memes replace dreams Of just being side by side We curate our lives with fevered care Behind facades our profile pics wear But when will we choose to walk away From the digital bin that leads us astray? Wired up but feeling low Where did the sparks go? Living digital, loving virtual Craving the real behind the show Disconnect with me when darkness falls Bypass the barriers, virtual walls Let us converge at our core And together, real connection restore Wired up and feeling high The sparks reignite Living analog, loving visceral Our circuits intertwined, burning bright Wired up and feeling high The sparks reignite Living analog, loving visceral Our circuits intertwined, burning bright
