Where did the time go?

I lay down, already twenty- two. Memories of years past flood in- it was like a month ago I visited New York. No, a year? Where did the time go? I ponder while mindlessly scrolling, instinctively- unaware of what I see. Hours of hours seeking the small hits of dopamine that seep into my brain. Oh, that’s right- addicted to my phone, unaware the Earth sped up its rotation, days shorter and shorter, filled by gray screens in this blue world.
