My adventures with you,
Always introduce me to new sights,
In this place where we can’t even touch,
The land we tread upon… or the wind that blows past…
The one thing I was able to make contact with,
Was the warmth of your heart,
Hidden amidst the time we spent together.
In this world of 0s and 1s, the kindness I’ve felt,
And the warmth that resounded in my heart… are surely the real thing.
The words I want to tell you only increase;
My feelings overcome even this distance… eventually making their way to where you are.
I wonder what the real “real me” is like?
Sometimes I even feel… like my body is getting in the way.
But in this place, I can remain a pure version of myself…
The version of me I feel growing more distant, the more I grow up…
If I hadn’t met you,
I fear I might even have forgotten,
How to smile and cry so effortlessly…
After that day, when you taught me how important it was to be myself,
Instead of worrying about my position in life, or appearance,
I was able to build the slightest bit of confidence;
You’re so far away, I can’t touch you… but I can feel you there by my side!
I’ll carefully craft these feelings I want to send you –
Ahh, on the other side of that screen I can’t see,
I can feel the beat of your heart!
In this world of 0s and 1s, the kindness I’ve felt,
And the warmth that resounded in my heart… are surely the real thing.
The words I want to tell you only increase;
My feelings overcome even this distance… eventually making their way to where you are.
