Each time the screen illuminates
I smile in hopes that it's your face I see
It's reading your kind words that brighten my days
Giving life to the hope inside of me.
The desire I feel inside is one I thought had expired.
To lay in your arms and experience your presence
Longing to be soothed by your effervescence.
Of All the anguish I have allowed to take over my heart
The pain I've internalized...Can it now depart?
To a place of darkness where I will no longer reside
Filling me with light rather than being empty inside
The presence of your name in my inbox
Or your picture across my screen.
Chips away at the concrete encasing of my emotions
And the fear suppressing my dreams
Illusions of a place and time were happiness was sublime
No longer a distant image of days and times gone by.
Dreaming of a journey with destination yet unknown
From cyber space to face to face; possibilities untold.
