Digital Lifelessness
Digital promises
Of love
Of want
Of need
Hidden in the glare
Of radioactive projections
Forbidden messages
In electronic bottles
Carelessly cast adrift
On binary waves
For machines to distribute
To virtual dreamers
Overflowing with
Despair
Loneliness
And a desire to be needed
A girl missing the world
As the unknown
Boy next door
Is doing the same
Looking for life
In the worst of places.
