Computer Hearts

He was miles away but inches close.

He falls asleep when I awake.

I didn't understand this distance,

His mentality and mine matched.

Pixels created a love I'd never known.

I spent days dreaming of touching his face,

and nights feeling him on me,

my cotton sheets charaded.

It seemed so senseless to society, but I loved you.

The words disappeared, like your screen had broke.

Like you were dead.

Then alive.

Like you were dead again.

And alive again.

You swung, and I was waiting every time you came back.

Still, I wait beside my computer. Hoping today you'll be alive to me again.
