NOTHING MORE TO SAY
My cellphone and I aren’t talking, I think I’ve heard enough
The things we were discussing was needy nonsense stuff
Messages from Facebook again and again and again
Keeping up with the wanting web is driving me insane
Emails every morning, so much texting through the day
How could anyone keep up, there’s only so much one can say
Here’s an email from a publisher, for a contest I may have won
I’m trying to form an answer and here comes another one
I’m looking for a strategy that will give me back a life
Like reading a best seller or a long walk with my wife
I just need a moment and not a permanent immunity
Without the interruption of the world-wide community
So, I’m swearing off of fakebook and shutting down my phone
There’ll be no more social media, I just want some time alone
I will be living in the moment, if only for this day
I hope you all don’t miss me; I have nothing more to say
