Poems and Stuff Part 2

So Close Yet So Far

I see you there on that bench, sitting all alone

a tear falls from your eye, and I wonder what went wrong

I reach out for you, to give you a gentle hug

you don't know it yet, but at my heart strings you tug

-

I reach for my screen as your face comes into view

That's when I realize that I'm not really there with you

looking through virtual windows from so far away

sometimes I get caught up and lost in this role play

-

sliding my quick fingers across the keys

suddenly I'm in front of you on my knees

taking your hand and pressing it to my lips

hoping the way I truly feel doesn't slip

-

virtual love is so hard

so close yet so far

never holding the ones you love

is it ever really enough
