Heart Me

I just want your tiny insta-heart

like a sticker earring to my eye,

that hot fudge, cyber sundae,

sugarless soul rush, pixel pie!

Show me I'm the cherry on top

of all your sprinkled little thoughts

for just one scroll across that screen—

I'm the star, your online queen!

Please, I just can't get enough

of all those happy heart flecks,

puffy-perfect 2D shapes—

sweet endorphins only

you can make!

Oh, don't make me wait—

with a single finger tap,

gimme just one more

second's taste of tiny

button h-ha-heart!

Ah—I'm so hungry

here alone.
