Love's not easy over the Internet.

Words alone can be misunderstood.

Love needs eyes and lips and hands to let,

Lover's can't reach through the opaque screen.

To underscore their message with their arms,

To say with touch exacly what they mean.

Or give the light caress that anger calms.

Instead,they must rely on faith and trust,

Loving patiently a fleshless soul,

Taking words for kisses because they must,

With fully communion their elusive goal.

Be patient, love, and someday soon you'll see,

My body tell you want you mean to me.
