We live in the realm of screens,
entwined with wires,
our existence tethered
to the digital domain.
Through curated feeds,
we catch glimpses of lives,
projecting our longings
onto their curated façades.
We scroll, endlessly searching,
craving connection
amidst a symphony of voices,
seeking validation
in the currency of likes and shares.
Yet amidst the curated illusion,
an abyss of emptiness looms,
a profound yearning
for the tangible,
the authentic,
the unfiltered.
We observe as others navigate,
their joys and sorrows
flashing before our eyes,
and we question,
is this enough?
Or are we simply bystanders,
spectators of lives
we can never truly inhabit,
forever ensnared
in the realm of the vicarious?
