Digitally Yours

I watch your
life unfold
on the ten second
chats you snap;
see your face 
in my online book
and wonder 
where our timeline is
going.

You 
twitter 
when I 
tweet 
but our
digital lives keep
us from getting any
face time.

I troll around and
Google 
you,
sift through your 
instant pictures 
for
proof of your 
(p)interest;
read between the lines
of your 
text.

As my hope goes
up in smoke like 
Tinder
my 
Candy-coated crush
begins to fade
and I remind
myself that 
WOW
there are 
Plenty of fish
in the sea.
