Love's not easy on the Internet.

Love's not easy on the Internet.
Words alone can be misunderstood.
Love needs eyes, lips, hands to let
Hurt rest easy when joy feels good.
Lovers can't reach through the screen
To underscore a message with their arms,
To say with touch exactly 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 'cause they must,
With full communion their elusive goal.
