Don’t look for inspiration
In sources found online
Don’t scroll for affirmation
For worth you will not find
You should know the truth by now
And when things are not real
There is little online but
Impossible ideals
Instead look to people who
In action and in thought
Match all values that you hold
That won’t be sold or bought
It needn’t be celebrity
That shines light in your eyes
Hollow is the spotlight’s glare
It seeks to hide their lies
Likes and hearts, a quick thumbs up
Is not what means the most
Followers around the world
Don’t care how much you post
Be here! Be now! And be yourself
Be in reality!
For trading life for “virtual”
Seems oh so strange to me!
