Today I went down your timeline.
Down, perhaps, to 2010.
I'd say I got to know you.
The you you were back then.

Your smiles are wide and plenty
You share exciting news,
Reply to comments, pictures, tags.
You laugh, you drink, you schmooze.

Today you don't write on people's walls
You don't thank people for sharing
You ignore all the pictures that are up
Don't remark on what your friends are wearing.

I fear your inactivity
Means something bigger, something more.
If you're not having fun in pictures,
Are you having fun at all?

I now long to have known you
When smiles were all you knew,
When red cups frequented your big, rough hands
When your posts weren't far and few.

I wish Facebook didn't tell me
Who you used to be,
I look at who you are today,
And wonder how much it has to do with me.
