Friends on Screen
We sit and we type, and we stare at our screens
We all have to wonder, what this possibly means.
With our mouse we roam, through the rooms in amaze
Looking for something or someone, as we sit in a daze.
We chat with each other, we type all our woes
Small groups we do form, and shared things
We wait for somebody, to type out our names
We want recognition, but it is always the same.
We give kisses and hugs, and greetings too
In Place we chat deeply, and reveal why we hurt.
We do form friendships - but - why we don't know
But some of these friendships, will flourish and grow.
Why is it on screen, we can be so bold
Telling our secrets, that have never been told.
Why is it we share, the thoughts in our mind
With those we can't see, as though we were blind.
The answer is simple, it is as clear as a bell.
We all have our problems, and need someone to tell.
We can't tell real people, but tell someone we must
So we turn to the 'puter, and to those we can trust.
Even though it is crazy, the truth still remains
They are Friends on screen , and odd little names.
