Since being home alone

I have scars from online

I am here because of

Scars from real life

To believe in anyone

Is to destroy your life

They take away your trust

It deadens your mind

You go back again & again

It keeps you company

Creates a false reality

That is where I am

The real world is gone

It has no meaning to me

It is filled with pain

Here everyone is a scammer

Something left to gain

Everything to lose

I can’t love again

It’s too elusive

I yearn for human touch

A voice that responds to me

Face to face interaction

A hug and sensation

All I have is your picture

Looking over your shoulder

As you ask me to have faith

I only pretend that I do

Each day melts into the next

My heart breaks in false reality.
