It’s not the way it complements my guy-pad,
nor how it apprehends my least request,
that drove me to desert you for my Ipad.
It’s not the pleasing shape that I find best,
nor even how it lights up at my touch
and never tries to gainsay me or judge.
Although I like those features very much,
there's someone else’s face I’d rather smudge.

I love you, as I have from the beginning,
but I can’t take this any more. Please note,
I really feel more sinned against than sinning,
for to ensure you’d see these words I wrote—
let alone they’d pique your interest—
I’ve had to post this up on Pinterest.
