somewhere over the rainbow

online friends

You know about my interests.

You like reading my words.

You consider me a friend (I feel the same way about you.).

You know my name, and some background.

You support me when I'm down.

You cheer along with me.

But do you know me?

Do you know my feelings?

Can you read the thoughts inside my head?

The things that are never said?

Is it me that you really like?

Or is it my words that appeal to you?

You can't hear my voice.

Can't see my blonde hair moving in the wind.

You don't notice my mannerisms.

Am I your friend?

Are you mine?

We've never met, face-to-face.

Just read each other's words.

I kinda know who you are.

Your screen name looks familiar.

I know a portion of your personality.

What do you know of mine?

We're online friends, the two us.

We love recieving praise.

How long will our friendship last?

Do you trust me?

I trust you...a little.

I read your words, yet don't know what's going on in your mind.

If we were to meet, face-to-face.

If we could talk on the telephone.

If we were more than online friends...

...Would our friendship still exist?

Would you like me in real life?
