Fingers slide over a touch screen Pushing nonexistent keys Words then strung into sentences Should be so full of meaning The 'I love you's and 'sweet heart's lies Deft fingers dance on a keyboard Typing forever a message not sent Backspace and delete, find better words Think of something comforting and kind Make sure to put 'I love you' at the end lies Ringing and buzzing, he's calling again Let out a sigh, put on a loving voice Click on answer, talk for an hour Harder to feign emotion on the phone Say 'I love you too', hang up lies See him in the distance, put on your smile Tap on the shoulder, hug from behind Hope your mask doesn't falter Hand in hand, a kiss on the lips 'I'm so glad I met you' reply 'me too' lies
