I've kissed your lips <br />a thousand times in my mind <br />I can only see <br />who you appear to be <br />behind my computer screen <br />Something inside me <br />cried out <br />I wanted you <br />but... <br />I couldn't touch you <br />because... <br />you were behind glass walls <br />that kept us apart <br />My heart was aching <br />I was shaking <br />on edge <br />I wanted to hold you <br />so, I tried pulling you in <br />through my walls of glass <br />but, that didn't last <br />My heart was shattered <br />it didn't matter <br />that the distance between us <br />was enormous <br />no way of breaking through <br />I still want you <br />I'll continue to kiss you <br />A silent kiss from your lips <br />though it's all in my mind <br /> <br />(2007)<br /><br />MAXINE P.
