You and I each noticed the other <br />because of silly words <br />and witty banter <br />displayed in a chat room <br />goofy jokes <br />that no one else seemed to get <br />quick wit <br />making for quick friends <br />first impressions <br />common expressions <br />typed in sync <br />creating bemusement <br />followed by amazement <br />at how much alike we <br />really do seem to be <br />which inevitably gave way <br />to deeper connections <br /> <br />You and I realized <br />though from different places <br />we seemed to be ready <br />to travel a common road <br />So we set out to see <br />if the silly jokes <br />were just as funny <br />when whispered <br />in person <br />and would there be <br />real passion <br />reaching in sync <br />sweet spots we touched <br />and the silly words <br />turned out to be <br />just as sweet <br />when poured out <br />in horizontal positions <br /> <br />You and I learned <br />silly words paved the way <br />for sharing of secrets <br />revealing all sorrows <br />recapturing dreams <br />two children at play <br />daring to trust <br />gaining entrance <br />to places <br />where there are no words <br />left afraid to be spoken <br />where adult children with hurts <br />could find healing <br />through silly words <br />spoken with love <br />always bemused <br />but no longer amazed <br />when words are in sync <br />or not needed at all<br /><br />Mary Havran<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/synchronal/
