Text-messaging Alters the DNA of Love

Ever wonder why you write things in text–that you may never say in person?

 

Why are people hiding behind text veils all of a sudden?

 

People ‘fall in love’ on the Internet everyday,

Or may break-up or fall out of love by text.

 

Words in standard font may be deciphered repeatedly

For meaning, tone and intention, and never erased by the sender…

 

 Is this all really happening?

 

Adolescents today find dates through social media,

Talking or texting for a while is this year’s first base

 

Emojis, photographs, and non-handwritten messages

Now formulate romantic bonds between two people

 

Silence in the down time and human contact diminish

All—with the Iphone…

 

What is this contraption? It has certainly altered the DNA of love.
