like the night,
slips softly into day,
and since that moment,
I have not been the same.
You appeared as a silent message,
upon my computer screen,
offering friendship, a kind word,
as if a dream.
We speak silently daily,
about our plans, our hopes, our desires,
I find myself sharing things,
I've never told a soul,
with you I share the real me,
with no fear of judgment or shame,
this closeness I feel with you,
simply cannot be explained.
Now each evening,
I look forward to,
a silent message on the screen,
warming my heart,
heating my blood,
feeding my spirit,
making me smile,
my long distance love,
you.
