Lonely State

Isn’t it ironic that while the world shrinks every day

People drift further and further away..

*

An ever-widening chasm separates the haves from have-nots

People do not associate with those who do not share their thoughts

In this hyperconnected world tribalism somehow survives

Divisiveness is the policy that universally appears to thrive..

*

We live in echo chambers within our comfort zones

We exist in greater numbers, yet spend our lives alone

Virtually we meet with people located everywhere

In real life, of our neighbors we are unaware..

*

We made communication easier, but lost the art

Of communication in the process, we drifted further apart

Glued to our screens we do not try to communicate

With people around us- we live in a lonely state
