The Illusion

Hypnotized by a tiny screen…
We waste away, from this gift, called day…
We scroll, hit like and love and cry…
Pulled into the illusion…
Thinking other’s lives are better somehow…
As we stare into an unknown reality, like the gaze of a curious cow…
Minutes become hours; we’re addicted to the tiny screen…
Pulled deeper into the deep, black hole, believing it’s a cosmic dream…
We’re like faded flowers stuck in a vase…
Expressions fade upon each face…
Trapped together in a timeless place, where no one wins, and there is no end…
Round and round and round we go, to Never, Never-Land!

Romans 13:12 New International VersionThe night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
