Perhaps that final line in the linen
Sits in your electronic distraction
As beautiful as your are,
Lit by that LED glow
Your engrossment detracts from the mood
My caresses attempt to induce
Perhaps that final line in the libido
Sits in the intrusive sound bite
As addictive as your giggle is,
Solicited by viral facetube
Your fingertips hoarded by cursed device
Leaving me barren of your touch
Perhaps that final line in lust
Sits between your ears
As you beg for my ministrations
With hooking foot and rubbing calf
Your attention detained by photospam
Trapped on this one way road
Perhaps I crossed that final line
Sliding inside of you
Preoccupation clutched in your hands
Cold realisation arriving
Like your back when I withdraw
To the edge on my side of the bed
Sits in your electronic distraction
As beautiful as your are,
Lit by that LED glow
Your engrossment detracts from the mood
My caresses attempt to induce
Perhaps that final line in the libido
Sits in the intrusive sound bite
As addictive as your giggle is,
Solicited by viral facetube
Your fingertips hoarded by cursed device
Leaving me barren of your touch
Perhaps that final line in lust
Sits between your ears
As you beg for my ministrations
With hooking foot and rubbing calf
Your attention detained by photospam
Trapped on this one way road
Perhaps I crossed that final line
Sliding inside of you
Preoccupation clutched in your hands
Cold realisation arriving
Like your back when I withdraw
To the edge on my side of the bed

It sounds like you've reached your limit on a lover's obsession with the internet, Frank. It is seductive, and it's often hard to get back off into "the real world." It's when the addiction starts to interfere with real tenderness, affection and other concerns that it becomes a genuine problem perhaps best addressed with a period of abstention, keeping that laptop closed except for checking email.

Yes Crowfly I completely agree with what you have said, I think a no devices in the bedroom policy is a conversation that needs to be held!

feel that distressed blade
right in my soft heart you've sent
a terrible frown
those last two lines cut deep. ugh.

Ouch, the pain goes right through me. I hate to say I can relate to this. A very empty feeling indeed, which you've conveyed perfectly. Brought back emotions from the past, I remember it all too well. I feel for you. Thank you for touching on this subject, really loved this piece.

Thank you WoundedHeart, I'm sorry to have awakened old wounds.
I understand her need to turn to this to unwind, but I do object to that preoccupation continuing when I am massaging and caressing. That's not meant to be a one-way road.
