Poem -
We forget
Here's some things you'd rather not know
things before the supermarket was the only place we'd go
things before this whole quarantine
things just aren't the way they seem.
Before this we'd all been practicing social distancing
by pretending to be close
even to the ones we should care about the most.
Our phones have made us feel somewhat secure
while our real relationships grow fewer.
We're comfortable contacting people we've never meet
and as for the ones who should matter, we forget.

Lot of truth here, god knows what kind of future it will.lead us too Gab....??
This is a great self aware poem! It shows how we are controlled by the things we fear to be without. Yet without those very things we wouldn’t be who we are today. Very nice ?
Aw thankyou ☺️
Well written! We do indeed spend an awful lot of time on our devices talking to people and friends we have never actually met while friends and family in our real lives are sometimes neglected. Often it is partners and spouses that come off worse in this. It's good to read work from new and different people on here. I do hope you will stay and share more of your work with us x
excellent poetry keep writing Linda
Well penned. People have the need to escape from mundane daily life to find spiritual connection, I suppose. No right or wrong.
