Scarlette Howard Poet Free verse

Social Media

I know your main objective
Was to keep us all socially connected
But not all of us are accepted
There are platforms
That make us feel
Lonely and rather neglected
These groups are so picky and selective
Not everyone is kind and respective
I guess this is expected
No one is safe or protected
Social media don't get me wrong
Your brand is effective and strong
Sometimes there are groups
That do get along and their comments 
Makes us feel like we belong
Social Media, I like your objective
But could you make a way for those who are weak,
Stress and depress
Bullied and vulnerable to be accepted and protected
After all everyone wants to be accepted.

I don't do social media 'twatter and 2faced book' cause so many problems especially with bullying or things being misconstrued as you have so few characters to use ' I've had issues with morons on soup making my life a misery hence the reason I am rather inactive:-( hugs Jan xx Scarlette Howard May 3, 2019 at 3:16 AM Hi Jan I am always happy when I am encouraged or commented by you.
