I see the glow in your eyes every day,

But never when they’re looking at me.

You give me your attention,

But are you really there?

Mmmhms and yeahs

In all the right places,

But you never really heard

A word I said.

We met the modern way,

Thanks to technology.

Now it slowly erodes

What we built together.

That small rectangular black mirror

Provides the glow in your eyes

That I only ever see

From the side.
