Ex-lovers (Disconnected through social media)

Ex-lovers,
Fond friends,
Sitting alone,
Typing away -
Leaving links
And status updates.
Late night,
Both still awake.
I wonder.
What walls,
What wrongs
Rose up between them,
To one night be
Laying in loving arms
And now to be unaware
Of the others written words.
I know he wonders,
In the bedrock
Of his quaking mind
Where she is tonight.
And I know she
Ponders in the glades
Of her willowy thought;
If he might be online.
They say, the hardest
Part of loss is knowing
What's gone goes on.
Without you, your love;
The humble truth,
We're just screens,
Flckering walls that
Still flciker when the
Power of our connections
Are cut off.
We just flicker,
For something else.
Ex-lovers,
Fond friends,
Sitting alone,
Flickering away.
