Pixel Heartbreak

Left you on read

Screen burn in the dark of my bed

Blue ticks

Red flags

All stacked in my head

You said forever

Typed it

Then deleted instead

You spin me round like a loading sign

Little gray dots in a typing line

Every reply is a landmine

Why am I still online?

Glitch in my chest when you log in

Heart skips frames then it jumps again

Love in lag

I’m buffering

You’re my pixel heartbreak

Scrolling your face like a bad tattoo

Tap that name

I’m addicted to you

Frozen app when I try to move

You’re my pixel heartbreak

Walk past your block

Same cafe

Same chipped white mug

You laugh too loud

I duck down

Hoodie up

Your new thing’s got

My old haircut

That cuts

I spiral out like a broken file

Zoom on your life from a thousand miles

Every new post is a landmine

Why am I still online?
