put your phone down!!!

Let your eyes catch some sleep,

Do not make them weep,

Please put your phone down,

Do not make yourself look like a clown.

Let your hands be free from movement,

They do not need more improvement,

Let’s slow down the hyper driven brain,

Thereby ridding it of the head pain.

Please put your phone down,

Instead wear your thinking crown,

Use you brain for something smart,

Or to create beautiful works of art.

Radioactive reminds you of a song,

Not the damage that comes along,

Eyes constantly glued to the phone,

Having no phone feels like a broken backbone.

Time flies by when we are using our phones,

We do not realize that we are alone,

Cyberbullies truly run rampant,

Friends, our heart’s only coolant.

Please put your phone down

Do not let yourself drown,

The phone is an abyssal trench,

Instead, go to a park and sit on a bench.

Breathe in the fresh air,

Let the breeze blow away your despair,

I implore you as a goofy and good friend,

Leave your phone in your pocket,

Take some time perhaps to mend,

So that you can start to tend to others around you,

I desire that we should all start anew,

What about you?
