little screen,
sweet denial,
let me live inside you for a while,
let me leave the world outside,
let me find a place in the pixels to hide.
blue light,
insomnia nights,
let me numb away the pain of the day,
let me scroll until i feel ok,
let me pretend i know the way.
hello phone,
virtual home,
let me escape my one precious life,
let me fall in love with a thousand likes,
let me live eyes down and heart shut tight.
little screen,
sweet denial,
i think i’ll stay for a little longer,
maybe just until i feel stronger…
let me escape.
