Internet Creeper
No words typed, no reactions punched.
Scrolling, clicking, reading, waiting
Silently, unnoticed with eyes wide open
Lingering in the backdrop unseen
Hushed behind unused cursors
Commands the internet creeper
Haunted by their silence
Hostage to their fear
Typed words, erased
Posts started, deleted
Windows closed, exhausted
Dying to be free
From the chains
Of self-doubt,
Trepidation,
Worthlessness.
