Hinge

I wasn’t really looking for anything.

I was just feeling around

It wasn’t dark

But I couldn’t see with my eyes

I didn’t hear with my ears

There was nothing to hear

I smelt nothing

My tongue stayed inside my mouth

But I realized

sometimes you don’t need to hear,

Or smell

Or see

Or taste

Once my hands reached out

In the light

And found what I hadn’t been searching for,

but what I was glad it could feel...

I understood with my heart.

I wrote this poem actually after having a bad experience with the app years ago (time flies). I do believe in Hinge and other dating apps though. You can find romance or great friendships. I've met great people on Hinge myself.

Anyway, thanks for reading. Peace.
