Virtually Here |

What can I say about this piece of poetry? Virtually Here was written for a special friend I made over the internet. As time goes by, you get to know someone better and better, learning of their fears and hopes. As I got to know this person, so I learned of their troubles. I wrote this in an attempt to show that, in the best way I can, I am there for them. This person lives on the other side of the Atlantic and as a result, we will, likely as not, never get to meet eachother. The person in question knows who they are and the words hold as true today as they ever did. Virtually Here The
most important thing a friend can give, they say, is
and understanding ear. For
when you need to talk to me, Know
that I’m virtually here. Through
cyberspace we meet new friends who
live both far and near. For
when you need me close to you, Know
that I’m virtually here. Though
life may throw a thousand knives you
needn’t always fear. For
when you need protection, Know
that I’m virtually here. In
me, you’ve got a life-long friend, who
finds you oh so dear. For
when you need a helping hand, Know
that I’m virtually here. And
when you’re feeling sad and down try
not to shed a tear, For
open arms will hold you, and Know that I’m virtually here. For
one day when all things conspire, to
allow me to be there. The
arms, the hands the comforting words Will
be more than virtually here. -oOo- |
