Screen life

Edy

Behind the screens I expose my  life

Lost in myself time after time

memories made solely through glass

family and friends talk on whatsapp .

 

Pretty I am, tap twice to like

matching love now, go on,  slide right

Want that new dress, click cart to have

Shopping became the trend with a card

 

Friends now you have, hacking your mind

Creeps behind you waiting online

Facebook will show one sides of your life

Twitter will spread big lies after lies

 

Typing is now the expression from heart

Losing that touch a letter once had

Hugging a friend, so hard this time

Click  send and  say all what you want

 

BLK ban you if you are solely white

Match might find you a partner for life

Plenty of fish likely will fish for your cash

On Craigslist sometimes a killer is in hide

 

On Insta you’ll have a crowd to brag

Grinder is now a site made to hide

Your life in display for people to tap

posting your smile in hope of one like

 

Snapchat Streaks will send

keeping you awake all night

Ghosting or making new friends

Emojis replacing your vibes


If love you need, with tinder you’ll have

Ugly are them, slide left goodbye

Knowing  you better so easy to find

Your life is online and nowhere to hide
