Letters across the screen
Their meaning questionable
Serious or humorous
So hard to tell

People losing their ability
To discern between a joke
And a matter of sincere importance
Because these are letter across the screen

We don't talk to one another anymore
We don't hear each others voices
We are just letters on the screen
Ambiguous at best

At one time we thought
The internet brought us closer together
But in my opinion
It drives a gigantic wedge between us

Because we are just letters across the screen
My humor is questionable
My thoughtful thoughts are perceived as banter
You have confused my intent

I am tired of these letters on the screen
I want to hear voices again
I want to shake hands once more
I crave human contact, not the internet
