Touching

Reaching out across the infinite
Cold nothingness of cyber space,
It's easy to feel disconnected;
The lines of reality are stretched
And then become blurred.
You coast along, wanting to
Feel a sense of community;
On the inside looking out.
The first tentative steps are taken
And suddenly you are not alone.
Words of tenderness are shared;
Likes, wants, needs and desires
Fill the lines of distance.
Dreams are exchanged and suddenly,
Time and space seem to bend;
The void is filled ~
Communion.
