(Written to the melody of Josh Groban's "Hidden Away")
On a Monday
I sent a tweet
Thought it funny
And I thought it sweet
As I sat there
Before my eyes
Saw my comment
Had been criticized
And all those thoughts
I expressed in play
Were distorted an ugly way
Thoughts and feelings
That I had to say
Think I’ll stay off
Twitter today
Typed it out
It showed up on my timeline
Opened up a part of me
Then I saw
her stinging words so unkind
Posted there for all to see.
Why did I tweet those lines?
I should delete those lines.
Please don’t be unkind
Twitter today
Cyber bully
Has crossed the line
Humiliation
In an hour’s time
A reckless rumor
How fast it grows
She gave it life while
Looking down her nose
And all those thoughts
That I said in play
Were distorted an ugly way
Thoughts and feelings
I just had to say
Think I’ll stay off
Twitter today
Typed it out
It showed up on my timeline
Opened up a part of me
Target of
The comments that were unkind
Visible for all to see.
Why must I feel unsure?
I need to heal some more.
Think I’ll just ignore
Twitter today
