Sitting here typing away each second,
trying to describe how I am feeling.
Trying to put my emotions into words,
So you can understand me,
and understand how I am feeling.
Tears show I hurt,
but you cannot see me cry.
Bruises show I hurt,
but you cannot see them.
How can you tell I am hurting,
If you only see words on a screen?
If you can only see my face,
To prove to you this isnt a joke.
You are only in cyber space,
Talking to me over the same wire,
telling me It will all be ok.
I believe your words are true,
and put my trust into you.
A friendship starts to grow with each IM sent.
When I need you in my life,
You cannot be here for me.
Miles upon miles away you are.
You cannot even hold me when I hurt,
Words can hold some comfort,
But real hands can help more than simple words.
Over this computer, holds many friends,
All in diffrent states,
Always there to chat if I need to.
You want to help me,
But how can you?
If I need a shoulder to lean on,
where are you?
If I fall back into life,
how can I find you?
Always here for me in this cyber space,
But where are my true friends in real life?
where?
Walking through the endless hallways during school without you by myside.
Thinking of my friends, back on cyber space,
Wishing you could just touch my face,
And hold me when I cry.
When will I get to meet you someday?
That day won't come soon enough.

Lisa!

I love it. Very passionatly written, very truthful, very open. A wonderful write. I wish I could be there for you.

Until the day we end up meeting, I can only offer my imaginary shoulder. Hope that is enough for you, my dear.

aww Lisa I know the feeling....

(I would say talk to me on AOL, but that might make the poem lose some context)

This poem was awesome....
I loved it, and I loved the reason behind it

Its true...the whole internet thing creates a very big disadvantage to showing people how your truly feeling. The piece was very powerful and emotional. You did a great job on it.
