A poem about how the world is sometimes more than our obsession with social media

In this world of in the moment A billion likes cannot say Just how a heart is beating In its purest loving way 280 characters are not enough When the mind composes a letter No smiling face or crying eyes Will make the darkness better Life faces forward We look back not ahead Our eyes the perfect camera To a world where love can spread Affection is not measured on a status Love is just created It is worn on the heart within Not always complicated Memories are locked in the mind A vault that's full of glory Forever able to be felt Not a disappearing story Life is what we make it A vast world to be seen Earth of exploration Beyond a fading screen Wake up from social shackles Walk the road ahead The most beautiful selfie in the world Is the path you have yet to tread

THIS is good, so very good.

What started out as something good, has become a monster with a life all its own, and we only have ourselves to blame, for our lack of control.

When I stepped away from Facebook I can write so much more. Writers need to stay away from social media, it's an addiction.

The poem has a lesson about being too wrapped up in social networking. While it is great that we can chronicle ourselves throughout our lives showing how we change from year to year, it is a shame that young people are not interested so much in venturing out into the world and sharing with a find rather than only venturing out on planned journeys recorded by smart phone or pad.
