Nothing but light radiates from the screen
perhaps that is why we are addicted to our phones

As we click, scroll, tap, listen, and watch
Shop, share, bank, and troll
Stalk, laugh, send, and share

Ignoring or dismissing the light above
Locking the light within

If I fall asleep with my phone on my chest
will I absorb the light?

Will is harm or disarm
I’m not sure and don’t want to know

I’d rather ignore the rings and dings

Suddenly the true light shines
I take the call
The one most anticipated

There may be nothing but light
disguised as shadow
