PING
review
name not known
accept
decline
face not shown
brave are we
affirmative
life’s to live
see what gives

note the pm
there is none
who is he
just have some fun
start the convo
hi my name’s X
await reply
see what’s next

words are shared
across the space
virtual hugs
face palm
sad face
flowers
kisses
flutter lashes
fingers hot
cell phone crashes

battery pull
let’s start again
find the convo
find the pin
there he is
he said he was waiting
on what you don’t know
just keep on chatting

sunrise
sunset
complete cycle
he asks your name
you blush and say
call me babe
the bond is made
the virtual net
is thrown and cast
you laugh and smile
this too shall pass

hello
review
what is the name
accept
decline
continue the game
