Hollow Existence

Oh ! what hollow lives we lead
Gazing at our screens
Like robots on automation 
Avoiding  human contact
Losing touch with nature 
Basking in the sunlight 
Or submerging in moonbeams 
Dancing with the waves
Or playing on the greens 
In the digital world 
We flirt with virtual lovers
Far from reality
Who are not what they seem 
Oh! What a facade 
What a hollow existence we live!
