Hiding in your phone...

Hiding in your phone

You don't want anyone to see you

It makes you feel safe

Thinking that you are connecting through it

But really being and feeling more disconnected than ever

It has become part of you 

It has become part of your false sense of confidence 

A confidence that has no roots 

No depth 

That is fragile and shaky

That falls down deep underground at the face of any perceived rejection or 

lack of validation from the outside world 

Stumbling, falling 

And then searching for meaning in it 

Trying to find something that makes you feel valuable, that you matter

But you will never find it in that piece of equipment 

No matter how hard, how long, and how often you look 

That object with advance technology will never ever give you what you are 

searching for 

It will never ever give you what you feel is missing inside 

Whatever you feel is missing inside 

Is only found within

Nowhere else...
