Scrolling through life, I'm waiting in the dark
Knowing the truth, but delaying the start
Connecting the dots my mind is my heart
If love is an action, then act the part
I find myself doing nothing for hours on end
I'll wake up early
But remain on the wrong side of the bed
Scrolling down through timelines as if time doesn't end
I see the lies of the life of people labeled as friends
I have my own profile, so I guess, I too can pretend
I've been devoured by media outlets
Every like and retweets are worse than cigarettes
Scrolling through life, I'm waiting in the dark
Knowing the truth, but delaying the start
Connecting the dots my mind is my heart
If love is an action, then act the part
People are seeking attention
But what am I doing
I'm getting entertained by people lacking in perception
Life is now a front
I'm not good with the word deception
Was told I can be infectious
That I can bring something to the table that's precious
That I shouldn't let people place me in a
Box
But as I sat there I heard only a paradox
I mean
I receive the message like keys getting into locks
But life is about timing and I don't have a clock
Scrolling through life, I'm waiting in the dark
Knowing the truth, but delaying the start
Connecting the dots my mind is my heart
If love is an action, then act the part
I wander this world aimlessly
I'm never sure where I'm supposed to be
But I try to do good so the rest can see
Vibrating Verbing Love is what we need
Love isn't just words, they're actions
They're fractions that play into reactions
Small ripples can reach across shores
They just need to have compassion
I've been compelled to create this poem
In hopes it can be your pebble
To don't conform to this world and remain a rebel
Scrolling through life, I'm waiting in the dark
Knowing the truth, but delaying the start
Connecting the dots my mind is my heart
If love is an action, then act the part
