I want to leave this virtual realm,

discard my imaginary friends,

discard my worthless status,

discard the notion that this gives me meaning.

I want to summon the courage,

to communicate honestly,

to be vulnerable,

to be there for my friends.

Until then,

I just tap, tap, tap,

tapping on their picture,

tapping to zoom in on their faces,

tapping to replace them with a stranger.

Its 1:30 in the morning,

I haven't moved for an hour,

glued to this superficial world,

staring at a coward's reflection,

in a blinking screen.
