the-digital-age
You were talking softly- I couldn’t hear a word you were saying... so I turned up the volume on my computer but you looked at me funny... You stopped loving me in that moment and probably in a thousand other moments like that.
Like when you were touching my cheek and whispering the world into my ear as I checked my feed. When we thought we had found our rhythm... you kissing my inner thigh; me texting.
For every time you asked me if I was listening because my eyes were on a screen not you. For every time we wrote status updates not love letters - for every single thing I tagged you in because it was easier than thinking of something to actually say to you, sending you gifs not gifts, giving you ‘likes’ not love, thinking being noticed is better than being whole.
so yeah I made wifi connections but missed flight connections and missed holidays and birthdays and anniversaries and I missed everyday --> cause I laughed louder at a snapchat than your jokes I moaned harder watching shit porn online than making love to you I screamed louder breaking my phone than your heart well I guess I fucking loved harder some digital piece of shit than I did you
‘I’m online'
now I’m alone.
