wired to connect, but the wires are frayed,

Every glance, every word feels like a grenade.

We’re lost in our heads, afraid to engage,

Living in a world we can’t escape.

Scrolling through the silence, drowning in the glow,

A million faces, but we’re all alone.

Echoes of voices, but nothing feels real,

Touch fades away, replaced by steel.

Social dysfunction, we’re caught in the storm,

Breaking connections, it’s the new norm.

Reaching for each other, but we slip through the cracks,

Hearts turned to stone, and there’s no turning back.

What if we could break the spell,

Find our way out of this shell?

What if we could speak, not shout..
