Innocence
In a worldly woman
Of just a certain age.
In a worldly woman
Of just a certain age.
Some see a girl.
Some see a woman.
Some see what they want to see.
I’ve never really seen her.
Online friendships are defined by the innocent anonymity.
And her worldly innocence
Is so compelling
To me.
Seeking so little and finding so much,
In the tenuous corridors
Of virtual electronic hallways,
Where we share our simple
Yet profound depth
Of understanding.
Wit and deep profundity,
Mixed with giddy girlishness and
Glee,
And despondency
When the world is no longer what she wants it to be.
Complete adoration of her,
And she for me.
Ours is the freedom to be what we wish
And sharing it happily.
Lasting as long as it may,
And loving our
Ties that have set us free.
We will continue
As long as may be.
As long as I may
Be here
For her and me.
