Whatever happened to the days
Where people were good, kind
When politeness reigned
A hello was always greeted
And nobody tried to keep score
Today seems so far removed
The socially connected
More detached from humanity
Like and share counts
May as well be raised fingers
To the world
Whatever happened to decency
A kind heart and thought
No hello or goodbye
No explanation anymore
Just the self serving lies
That now poison this life

Very frank observation you have made. We seem to be physically close but spiritually distant from each other. We seem to care with a smile but our hearts are very bitter with each other. Beautiful poem...10+
