Never Any Doubt

Tell me is it worse
To carry on as before
Or follow the line?
Tell me my worth
Am I deserving of anymore
Of your precious time?

Come with me now
And we will say no more about
We will pretend
Come with me now
And there was never any doubt
We’d win in the end


Virtual

It may be that she was right
It may be that he should walk
He would’ve said, “I love you”, if he could talk
He recalled their first night
She swept him off his feet
Then she swept him out into the street

He sits and stares at the screen
Pins his hopes on imaging
But it won’t compensate for the real thing
All the “friends” he’d never see
All the lives upon the screen
Flickering

Distractions at best
No-one saw and no-one cared
About the life behind
The status declared

Poking fun, playing games
All this fake intimacy
The point of it all escapes me

Distractions at best
No-one saw and no-one cared
About the life behind
The status declared

Nobody saw
Nobody came
His neighbours recalled
His face, but not his name
