These Screens

The Weakest Link

By VioletSunPublished 4 years ago 1 min read
It's there.

This is so new to me.. But--

I really do not care, if this is-- Virtual

Started off in party chats, then led to the phone

Every word I say is so personal

Our different time-zones replaced you as an alarm for me

Alarmingly...

We're both charmed, I see

Long text into voice notes

A cute way to make time for each other

A voice so-- soothing-- delicate-- innocuous

Ethereal-- Let me not fear, where this will steer us though

Before long, your voice has become my favorite song

Long routes at work, or even after hours of us speaking

I'd listen wherever I was in the world, and feel this is where I belong

But you know that I do not care if this is virtual

You know every word I say is personal

Maybe the universe will be merciful...

As we immerse ourselves through these screens

I can't help but pray this is greater

Than what reality has deemed.
