Sitting

15 1 0
                                    


They sit there
Laughing and crying
At the people on their screens

They sit there
Engrossed, staring
At the little device

They sit there
For hours and hours
With empty minds

They sit there
Missing out on laughing and crying
With the people there with them

They sit there
While the world goes on around them
But they never notice

They sit there
Filling their minds with nothing but empty words
Forgetting reality
