I sit at my chair Off the screen-saver goes A few moments, then I'm online And then I look A tense moment... And then I see his name in blue It's always like a game Who says hello first? But today, I win... And then we begin to talk "How was your day" "How was yours" And then it becomes deep It's strange to think That I'm so readily sharing All my hopes, my dreams My deepest secrets With someone on a completely diffrent contenent But when I'm actually typing It seems like the most natural thing That I could ever do He was just a friend at first But now I feel much more... Does he feel the same? I don't know But I'm having a feeling of deja-vu... My friends, along with my mind Tell me how crazy this is And how dangerous it can become For my soul and my personal safety In some way, I know they are right But none of that comes to me When I sit at my chair Off the screen-saver goes... And I see his name in blue "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |

Love Bug this is very descriptive - I love the poem. The content makes alarms go off in my head, though. netswan |

Ok, just to make this clear, it isn't that kind of relationship! (That's just gross!) I don't even know if he likes me or not, at this point we are friends, I'm just beginning to feel more. Thanks for the replies, though! "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." -Oscar Wilde |

Very lovely.....I like this...and don't be afraid of change....I mean before the invent of the car.....How limited was your choice of men or women... Same town maybe...or if you were lucky maybe two close towns.....then came the car and travel...then your choices became more and more.....Diffrent towns....countys...even states. The plane....brought new states and countrys......and the computer....well there is not end now. It is a form of comunication and connection. Its new...so enjoy because your parents could not...nor your grandparents. We never choose the ones we love....we just do  Good luck A man does not love a woman because she is beautiful...But she is beautiful because he loves her. |

LoveBug, this is good writing. Funny how easy it is to just type words and know someone around the world is reading them. I believe you have expressed the feeling pretty well here. A life isn't significant except for its impact on other lives. |
