Whirlwind

Earbuds

Alone the boy sat listening to tunes

His earbuds broke that afternoon

Along came a girl with earbuds to spare

And so they used them to share

The song that played had a nice beat

“I think I’m in love” the song would repeat

She smiled at the boy oh so fair

He couldn’t help but to stare

Bells were ringing and the day had come

Wearing his ring made his finger go numb

He had married the girl with earbuds to spare

The girl that handed him earbuds to share

A song was played to make the wedding complete

“I can’t help falling in love” the song would repeat

She laughed and smiled at her husband with glee

He gazed into her eyes feeling truly happy

Another day at the hospital with his wife

His heart felt as if it was cut by a knife

She was dying, the girl with earbuds to spare

She hid her pain and she did not share

Her husband played a song so very sweet

“I’ll love you forever” the song would repeat

As she laid there silently, her husband cried

His beloved deaf wife had died

TikTok

This app is overrated

It’s not hard to see why

Keep scrolling through the app all

day

TikTok’s a waste of time

Online exposure is unhealthy

Kids need to stop using TikTok
