Upside Down World It Is

Am I wrong,
Or has the world went upside down.
What happened to all? I wonder.

While I said "hello" to my bestie,
He replied "hi" through messenger.
What happened to him? I wonder

I asked my brother to go for an evening stroll,
I will accompany you on my cycle was his answer.
What happened to him? I wonder.

While I told my old colleague "I wanna catch up with you",
We will have a video chat session was his reply.
What happened to him? I wonder.

Is it me or is it the world around me
Has the world went upside down
Or it might be me, thinking downside up.
