How do they meet each other
How do they know
The other’s personality
How do they show

What they like about life
What do they tell
Each other in person
What do they have to sell

                They show each other their apps
                On their respective mobile phones
                They text each other on a date
                It sends shivers through their bones

                                They laugh about the latest Insta memes
                                They carry their phones like a body part
                                To get killed by a bus
                                When they aren’t that smart

                To look up to the world in front of them
                Where the dangers to their bodies hide
                It’s their mind they try to treasure
                It’s narrowed but they think it’s wide

What’s important to them
Which persons they like
Their phones know it best
They protect with a dike

How can they possibly know
There’s a sadness of missing out
How do they interact
When there’s a reason in doubt?
