Social Media

I wake up
First thing I do is like that post
And that post
And another post

It’s an addiction
One that’s normalised
Constantly on my phone
Looking into people’s lives

Everyone’s winning
Everyone’s glowing
Everyone’s happy
But here I am

Taking 27 photos
And only posting 3

Because unlike them
I don’t have perfect teeth
A perfect Life
I can’t even go to sleep

Most nights
Voices in my head saying
Just keep scrolling
One more video
That’s funny
watch it again

But I’m lying in my bed
Thinking about the things that I said
Less screen time
More family time

But I find myself here again
In bed liking that post
And that post
And another post
