I met a guy on the internet
He was the sweetest guy I ever met
He made me laugh, smile and dream
Maybe, I thought we could become a team
The time flew by, we would sit and chat
It was'nt long before we wanted more than that
We planned our future to be together
You and me forever and ever
I gave you my heart to have and to hold
I should not have been so bold
The miles between us were just too much
You needed someone closer to love and touch

You shattered my hopes and dreams
Along with my heart, or so it seams
The plans we made are all just dust
Get on with my life I know i must
My friends all say, you are no good
Agree with them,I know I should
You got on with life, found someone new
Guess what, I did too
It did'nt work out, Our new found loves
Once again, I looked to above

Your back again and we are friends
I hope so to the very end
It's to late now to be anymore
You broke my heart when you walked out the door
Another time another place
Or maybe If you could see my face
You  are there and I am here
I will always hold you near
I know one day we will meet
I dream of it in my sleep
I will hold your hand, and kiss your face
Maybe my heart will race
My friend Chris, friends we will stay
As I know its better this way


This is dedicated to my first love Chris we lasted 5 months but we will be great friends forever.

Deranger stands in awe at your ability to actaully rhyme!  I can never do it anytime. (err, wait that rhymed!)

Yes, dreams shatter easily when compared to say, a brick, but whats that got to do with anything anyway? Don't know? well neither do i!!!  Anywho, great poem, though i have reservations about "netluv" i am happy that at least your still friends.

This was an interesting poem and story.  The internet makes it so easy to talk to people, words on a screen can say anything.  Knowing the REAL person is another matter.  
Nice that your still friends.

Danny,
No offense but I kind of disagree with what you said about knowing the "real" person -- I am much more real on the internet than I am in person. In person you have to deal with appearances, etc. Though I do understand where you're coming from!!
Ok anyway, I think this was a good poem and though I have mever deal with "net luv" I imagine this is hwat it's like. Great first post, welcome to passions!!!

-- Crystal

 "The worst of what people do to one another is deceive.
Because when you love someone you control their version
of reality. If you lie to them that's like making them
autistic so that what they believe is reality is in fact,
not their true situation at all."

It's not the angry words that break the heart, it's the silence.

Someone said that true love is like a ghost -- often spoke of but never seen.
I've seen both and yet in my darkest hours, tend to believe that neither exits.

I believe you really get to know a person on the net more than you do in person.when you do meet, thats if you do then at least you know them.I got to know all of Chris family by talking to them all.When Chris and his family went to his aunts for xmas i got to talk to all them and they learnt from me about Australia.We all spent New Years eve together.
Chris and i will meet one day but it will only be as friends as that is the way I want it now.
