Cyber Romance
Lonely for the one I’ve said goodbye to
though knowing it best for both her and me
still ...
still there is the hole within
where our improbable love had been.
Though I’ve never seen the lady,
though she’s never seen me…
Lonely for the words we’ve written
and the thoughts we’d shared
and the countless lines of...
She has a husband I have a wife
neither, we say, will leave our life,
still…
Lonely for the lines of passion
that were felt by both.
Yet…
Though distant as the moon
lonely for the world...
I may be an ogre
she may be a beast,
can we really trust a picture
that may or may not truly be
still…
Lonely for the world we shared
bound by nothing more than
our fingers that wrote the words
that tightened the bonds of love
in our instant message world...
That tightened the bonds of love
in our instant message,
cyber world where only existed
the two of us.
In our private world where only existed
her and me and our never to be...
In our private world where only existed
we two that loved the heart pounding
instant message love that could never be.
Sorry it had ended?
I know I should not be!
Yet...
Yet there is still the hole within
where our cyber romance had been.
Your souls knew each other. There was no need to exchange photos.

I don't agree with your fingers being in love though. It is your brain, its erotic regions that is commanding the fingers to type those words that are received so electrically on the other end. But you fess up in the poem where you point out that the picture may be fake and you may be having passionate love with another man. Which is okay if you are gay. ;-)
