Digital Reality
Sometimes when I press my fingers softly against the keys
And shut my eyes tight against all the subtleties,
I feel your warmth, your gentle hold,
Rise up strong, rise up bold,
I feel your presence by my side,
Dream-like romance intensified.
The screen becomes a portal that connects me and you,
Our method of communication, our way to pass through,
The words I read, the words I hear, they echo in my ear,
They allow me to fantasize that you’re standing by near.
But the dream passes on by fastest than I will,
No pause button in sight, no way to stay still.
Between your brbs and ttyls, the loneliness returns,
This cybernetic addiction increasingly burns.
This is another reality I have chosen to accept,
It means more to me than all the secrets I have kept.
It is in this world that I’ve found myself a home,
An everlasting community within these walls of chrome.
A wonderful poem with a lot of life in it. I am seeing a sweet change coming!
I’ve missed coming online just to read your poems. Very lovely Blue
I’ve missed your presence, Moonlight dear.
This is one of the best poems I’ve read so far that captures the complex or strange digital romance. Well done!
Thank you, Elyas.
Very nice… such a technological age we live in. ♥
Indeed. But it doesn’t mean it’s any less wonderful than any of the eras that have come before.
That’s about the extent of it…odd world we are a part of. I think I’m becoming more actively involved with people I’ve never met than people I have really spent time with. Go figure! Nice post Miss!
Bisous Blue,
Dawn
But what a wonderful world it is. Thanks for dropping by, dear.
What a beautiful way to explain the world we’re a part of…
And I’m glad to be a part of it with you.
Very profound
Thank you, Andy. (:
You’re very welcome, enjoy your weekend (:
