Poem: Just To Touch You

So close and yet so far away
As my face grows wet with tears
I place my hand upon the screen
So I can feel you near
Just wishing for the moment
When I can feel your touch
To finally free this distance
That has come to be too much
I would dry away the fallen tears
That I know have touched your face
As we’ve sat here slowly typing
In this lonely cyberspace
So until that day can truly be
Just touch the screen you’ll feel
My hand as it’s resting here
Just wishing you were real
