A Poem by Joey Martinez

Living a false life just to keep a steady flow of instagram likes.
Portraying yourself to be in a position of stability but deep down you lack the ability to keep tranquility in reality.
Your road to success is under construction but you hide the cones and begin to drive into a fatality.
But you apply a filter to disguise the demise.
Lies are being posted and the likes have amped up the dosage of your ego.
Another mind becomes a casualty due to social media standards.
You claim to know all the answers but once the app is closed you oppose any help that's offered.
You can kneel on the alter and look to God but you still need to help yourself and delete your page of mirages.
Don't mistake internet popularity as a medicine for your mental health.
Work on the world you live in and not the world you log onto.
