Technology

In the days before TVs, it was just us, you and me

Our time was filled with simplicity, heartfelt and carefree

We walked hand in hand, with no distractions to balk

Just the two of us, together, taking our time to talk

Meals were shared, and our conversations were real

No screens or devices, to steal the joy that we feel

Our bond was strong, our love was our guide

No technology to pull us apart, no secrets to hide

My friends were your friends, and yours were mine

No need for virtual connections, our bond was a lifeline

We lived in the moment, with no need for a phone

Just enjoying each other's company, never feeling alone

But as technology grew, it started to drive us apart

Creating a divide in our once united heart

We became consumed by screens and virtual space

Our once simple life now felt like a fast-paced race

I yearn for the days when it was just you and me

No tablets or cell phones, just pure, real company

I long for the simplicity of our past, our love undivided

When we were connected in a way that truly united

Let's put down the devices, step outside, and go for a walk

Let's have a real conversation, no more small talk

Let's reclaim the simplicity of our love, cherish each moment

And create a space where our love can truly foment

Let's disconnect from the virtual world that pulls us away

And bask in the love and simplicity of yesterday

Let's rekindle the flame that once burned so bright

And guide our love back to its pure and simple light. ("Technology") by Courtney Weaver Jr.
