Let’s Get Real (Part 3)

How would you know “real” when you’re glued to screens that only seem.

Never really connecting to the thing in the room, right there in between.

“Us” might have had a nice ring, go ahead, try it, sing

Who made you King “Real”? Oh, just cuz you have a peen?

Oh that’s right, you don’t know real cuz you’re too afraid to feel.

The feels during meals that lasted hours. Go re-watch the reel.

What about those late night memes or the way you’d look at me?

Let’s ask Terry, oh wait, not “real.” But what about that joy she’d bring?

Queens can get lost, but they always find their way back. Now I got the wheel.

For the record, it was real, I just realized you don’t know what it means to feel.

So go back to your games. Let the adults be, while I go about and heal.

Already over it. Truth of the matter is, honestly for you? I am way too ideal.
