Cyber Love
© Pearl Garland Mendia
Can technology sustain a relationship? Can the cyber world bridge the distance between two hearts half way across the world?
you are here
and yet not here
we trick our minds
that distance is irrelevant
hoping our hearts will follow
and when we believe
this paradox transends us
we see with our hearts
we hear with our souls
we breathe as one
our longing quenched
we are at peace
and slumber beckons
where I once found
no rest
yet in the middle of the night
as dreams carry us
to far off places
our eyes shut tight
we remember…
and forget
not to reach out
with puzzled looks
at the incandescent screen
left open as we sleep
with hands outstretched
half expecting the rapture
from your intoxicating warmth,
-you are across my computer screen
oceans apart and 8000 miles away
