i had a dream so very real
i awakened with a start
they were only words
you e-mailed me
but they broke my heart

there will be no more
instant messaging
no e-mails night and day
you found a new love
in an on-line chat room
when i thought your love
was here to stay

i could say don't delete me
from your address book
but what good would it do
for i knew one day our e-lationship
would end the way
on-line romances often do

There must be a poem in here somewhere.

this is painful, because I've had a few of these myself

but now I know better
(and I'm married so that helps too)

For the most part online romances don't work, I've noticed. But then again, a lot of the other kind don't either. I think there is just much too much ego in certain people for things to work out. This is an era if instant gratification and moving on.

passing shadows-thanks so much for reading and resonding to my poem...i enjoyed what you had to say

JerryPat-I've never had any luck with on-line romance myself so i generally clear steer clear of it...yes, times have changed....i miss the old style romance of yester years
