The Conversation Conservation
You have a thousand friends you talk to
Not directly but all at once
You must be careful what you’re saying
Or you won’t get a response
Put that phone down and look at me
Talk to me with words not text
I want to hear your thoughts whilst free
Not your “considered what comes next”
Take the time to come and see me
My face has lines I used to laugh
On a screen you just see through me
A never aging photograph
Your mind needs more than all this traffic
It needs real memories it can touch
Life is not a competition
You can have too little... and too much
