In quiet hours, I crave even more
The hollow air cuts sharper than before
Close enough to touch, yet slipping away
The more it fades, the deeper I crave
Everyone says they’re with me
Under countless eyes, I feel like a star
When the screen turns off I'm nobody
I’m no one all the same
Tally
I thought it was wings
In fact,
it was a trap that bound me
The screen
is a world I can’t have
And someone
shines brighter than me
A day flooded with countless notifications,
In this moment, I almost feel alive.
But yesterday's likes have been cut in half,
So I tap the screen again, endlessly lost in the void.
The dazzling days I've let slip away,
The quiet glow of time turned back toward me.
Fragments of memories brushing past my hands,
I'll gather the scattered pieces once again.
