Connection
She met him on the internet
and each night, she would
come home, full of anticipation
as she signed on, and waited
until she saw his name upon the
screen.
It made her swoon as he had
been waiting for her, and late
into the night they would speak
how their words flowed back and
forth, and each time she hit send
she was taught until she heard the
chime of his response.
Her heart she poured out
and her soul she bore, she found
it so much easier, from behind the
screen to make a connection.
And he would listen, and always
offer a comforting word, and always
he was there, when she needed a light
night friend where once she would have
been alone.
When she lays her head down at night,
after shutting off the computer screen
it is with dreams of their next meeting
when again he can take away all her
worries.
