i wish there was an app for happiness

i wish there was an app for happiness

something i can download

to take away the pain

i need a real hug

not just a tag

an honest-to-goodness conversation

that doesn't involve abbrvtn

sure i got a 1000 friends

but none of them knows me

we talk through shoutouts

not over coffee

i spent my birthday

with wall-full of greetings

and not a single smile or kiss

my tweet moves faster than the speed of light

but my feet never go farther

than the fridge and the loo

how are you?

i'm fine, thank you

hahaha, hehehe

are all the laughter i know

and my emotions are limited

by the characters on my keyboard

for someone who claims to live outside the box

i spend too much time inside one

sure it connects me

to the farthest reaches of the universe

but i don't get to hold a hand

so i wish for an app

to dispel the mind-numbing sense

of loneliness

that envelops me

despite the hundreds of followers

and millions of contacts

every day, i fall asleep chatting with an orgy online

and still wake up alone
