Through Screens We Bloom

Each lonely night we chat, through naked bright lit screens
Building up a friendship, sharing wishes, hopes and dreams
As we chat, we type, we exchange thoughts, anxiously awaiting a reply
Wondering what the other thinks, our expectations high
What started off as friendly chat, something new and something fun
Has begun to change to something else, a transformation has begun
Through expressive text and detailed thoughts, powerful words we do convey
Never worrying or giving a second thought of having nothing left to say
A seed was planted between us both, a friendship nurtured from no existence
It’s bloomed and grew as we persist, to which we now have no resistance
We want to please, to satisfy every desire, every whim
To stir emotions, senses, passions, feelings deep within
As the nights go by, still we trade words, any inhibitions fading away
Harbouring, fervent, intense feelings yearning to meet somewhere soon, someday
But for now our flourishing closeness must remain between our screens
As we cultivate it further, deepening concealed roots and hidden means
Until one day we can unfold and blossom together as we meet
Then stand proud developed, matured, the whole world at our feet

The internet has a magical communication  aspect that has never been in the human experience.
The telephone, smoke signals, postal letters, did not have the effect on people like the old black magic
of e-mail has. Time will only tell if it is a good thing. Your poem comes as close to pointing that out , as I have ever seen.

A world transformation has begun. Where will it stop ?

You nailed it...the net is a wild and mysterious voyage into humankind.
