Separated lovers,
what a tragic thing.
Trying to find comfort
in a blue computer screen.

Trying to touch someone,
where's a hand to hold?
Typing on a keyboard,
what could be so cold?

I look on them with wonder,
it's enough to make me cry.
But at least they've some connection,
at least they give love a try.

Nan darling heart you are without doubt such a wonderful writer, the flow and the form of this is a perfect dream. How do you manage to do this so well? I know how you manage you do it because you are an incredible writer. This is so beautiful an amazing stunning example of a written heart’s sigh.. Absolutely awesome writing skills. Such an outstanding and beautifully crafted piece of writing darling heart your talent leaves me breathless.

I love it love it love it utterly utterly utterly, this really is exquisite

Love and warm stuff
As always
Mushy

Breathe through the heat of our desire
Thy coolness and they balm
Let sense be dumb let flesh retire
Speak through the eathquake wind and fire
Oh

in the next century they'll probably be yet another method of dating...but nothing is as efficient as being face to face from the start, I think..nice write!

Martin, Thanks. Yes, nothing is as certain as change, but I think touch has to get in there somewhere.

Kris,
How sweet of you. Thank you.
