Hey, you!
Are you
Who you
Say you
Are?
My browser
Tells me one thing,
You say another,
Always shifting,
Changing.
Names,
Places,
Ages,
Genders,
Changing faster
Than an NYC
Stop light.
I don't know you,
I never will,
But can I trust you?
You, who are
Who you think I
Want you to be?
I think
You can be trusted,
Trusted with the secret
Of your identity.
It's a risk, I know,
Talking to you,
But there's a certain thrill
In taking a risk.
So, we chat,
=)
;)
=P .
You,
Faceless,
Nameless,
-though your screenname is cool-
Can listen
To my life secrets,
Because you will never know
Me.
Internet acquaitance,
I know your secret-
You are the ghosts
Of my past,
And the spectres
Of my future.
You are not real,
But I am,
So good-bye,
Internet acquaintance.
Reality calls me.
