Removed From Reality

removed from reality

He doesn’t see much in eye contact

nor does he care to relate

Its true he’s always lacked tact

a few think it’s more, it’s hate

He’s taking matter into his own hands

and leaving reality behind

Going off to a sea of cyber lands

creating a virtual world with his mind

Taken in totally with the internet space

wanting a universe of his own

He’ll be a force without a face

removed from reality, connected but alone
