She sat with back against the wall
Screen-lit eyes before the fall;
A thousand emjois, no mistake,
Her trembling heart did life so break

We sit with backs against the wall
Screen-lit eyes before the fall;
A thousand phones, so glued to face,
Social norms, our minds erased

You sit with back against the wall
Screen-lit eyes before the fall;
A thousand messages, snap-chats and pics,
We’ve lost our love to digital flicks

All together against the wall
Screen-lit eyes before the fall;
Society’s caught a cold quite sick
Frozen hearts fall fast and quick

Don’t let the dark times get you down. Wandering ways with words.
