Internet love
There you are gazing at the screen,
You swipe right, you swipe left,
Sometimes you pause there and take a moment
Trying to pick a match at a glance,
Sometimes you resist, sometimes just a double tap.
You fancy yourself and filter your flaws,
You feel cherished over virtual words, as your heart might fall,
But you wonder if it's real, and could it be love at all.
