Most of the times I talk to her
   it's through the power lines
the light speed of electricity
   connecting our lives

The electric glow of the computer screen
   I gaze at from my chair
does not look at all like her face
   that often so beautifully stares.

The kisses do not feel the same
   through a dial-up modem
hen they fall upon my face
   it's so much fun to count them

The hugs do not feel as strong
   through the DSL cables
There are no arms wrapping around me
   infront of me the computer table

Most of the times I talk to her
   it's through the power lines
I miss her more each second counted
   that's not connecting our lives
Something I wrote for sara. She said :: hug :: or as she does it *hug* and normally I respond with my hug but this time I didn't. I was quite upset that I couldn't feel her hug. There are sometimes that I really need to feel that hug but I can't so I wrote a poem about it. This is my anger against technology. I wrote this one March 21, 2007. I might add more to it. I don't know. I hope you guys like it.-Steve
