Long distance love affairs
Used to suck-
It would be rare
For them not to run amok.
Sometimes, they'd last a while
At the start,
But then
Few would
Withstand the trial
While far apart.
But now we're living in the golden Cyber Age,
And you don't need to be
A sage
To figure out
That you have a chance
To do a lot of things
About
Keeping your romance
Alive,
No matter how long
You have to be apart
Your love can still grow strong
And thrive
And keep on burning in your heart-
With daily messaging on your cell phone
You'll manage not to feel alone
And then you'll chat
In real time,
And that
Will also keep your love sublime
And even though
You're very far away,
In cyber space your love will not decay,
And with a WebCam
You will see each other
And distance then
Will never smother
Your feelings like it would before
In those pre-cyber days of yore.
So use email, text and chat online
If fate divided you, do not resign
To losing precious love that came your way,
And let technology its strength display
To make the time when you are separated
A time in which great value is created,
A time in which your love becomes so strong
That it don't matter that you have to wait so long
To meet your love again because you are in touch
By email, texting, WebCam and the such.
And when the walls of separation fall,
You'll feel that you have not been so far apart at all;
That with these modern means to stay in touch,
Ten thousand miles nowadays don't mean that much.
We praise the Internet for many things,
But, in my view, its greatest acquisition
Has been the fact that it can now bring
Two distant lovers in a good position
To keep their love alive
Across blue oceans,
Mountain creeks
Deep valleys, peaks,
And time and space,
Just like a magic potion
To keep two hearts in place
And help their love survive.
