The Illusion of Validation

Social media self-deception

The Illusion of Validation

In the world of social media we dwell

Where likes and comments cast a spell

We scroll through feeds, till our eyes swell

To seek validation, oh, what the hell.

Our profile pics, do they tell

A thousand lies, like Pinocchio's sell

Yet we pretend, all is well

While our true selves, in shadows dwell.
