Living Behind the Screen
Everyone has a voice, behind the screen
Everyone has a choice, behind the screen
Everyone is tough, behind the screen
Words can be rough, behind the screen
Now everyone is an expert, behind the screen
Easier to cause hurt, behind the screen
Opinions can be heard, behind the screen
Hate you prefer, behind the screen
Easier for you to hide, behind the screen
Easier to follow lies, behind the screen
Easier to sway the youth, behind the screen
Hide the truth, behind the screen
You can choose to stalk, behind the screen
Cowards will talk, behind the screen
Drama can be told, behind the screen
Life can unfold, behind the screen
Our eyes are straining, our heads are down
Ignoring the present events occurring around
Life passing you more as we bury deeper
Into our screens social media stock climbs steeper

Excellent
May we come out from behind the screen.

Thank you for the comment. I am glad you enjoyed. My roommate gave me the inspiration.
A powerful, provocative and reflective piece. It is always easier to disbelieve than to believe, because belief is an act of building; disbelief is an act of breaking. We need Light, but we fear this the most. Funny old world. Just musing. Excellent poetry, told well.
