Lost in Technology:

A Reflection on Our Obsession

By Pojarajan Nandan CumaranPublished 3 years ago 1 min read
A Reflection on Our Obsession

We're all so obsessed with our devices,

Scrolling through feeds and taking life's tests.

We're consumed by likes, and the next big prize,

Ignoring the world, and the beauty it rests.

We're so fixated on our screens,

That we forget to live life in the present.

Our eyes glued to what it all means,

As we lose sight of what's truly heaven sent.

We chase after followers,

And measure our worth in retweets.

But what good is all of that,

When we can't see the beauty in the street?

So let's put down our phones,

And take a moment to breathe.

Let's go out and explore,

And see what life has to offer, to truly believe.

We're all so obsessed with the digital world,

But let's not forget about reality.

It's time to put our screens down, and unfurl,

The world of beauty and serenity.
