Hibo Posted October 24, 2001 Underneath everyone there is this nice , kind person but we don't usually show that side of ours....some will argue that it is a weakness to show it..yet in the internet we do it..perhabs disguised ..u see people posting things that are very dear to them.....well that has led me to come up with this poem....it sort of summerizes from the friends we make from the internet to the emotions we show....here it comes We sit and we type and we stare at our screens We all have to wonder, what this really means With our mouse we roam, through the rooms in a maze Looking for something or someone, as we sit in a daze We chat with each other, we type all our foes We wait for somebody, to type out our name We want recognition, but it is always the same we give kisses and hugs, and sometimes flirt In IM's we chat deeply and reveal why we hurt WE do form friendships-but-why we don't know But some of these Friendships, will flourish and grow Why is it on screen we can be so bold Telling our secrets, that have never been told Why is it we share, the thoughts in our minds With those we cannot see, as though we were blind The answer is SIMPLE, it is as clear as a bell We all have our problems, and need someone to tell We cannot tell real people, but tell someone we must Go turn on the 'puter, and to those we can trust Even though it is crazy, the TRUTH still remains They are FRIENDS without FACES, and odd little name Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Istaahil Posted October 25, 2001 Hibo, sis u r so right! I can't believe how well u put it. It is true it's much easier to say exactly what is on your mind to someone u can't see. I find myself speaking my heart to ppl I have never met. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Naag-qaawan Posted October 26, 2001 Nice one Hibo... You're right It's so easy to express yourself online and tell people how you feel exactly...U find friends online, U find Lovers and sometimes U find even More.. Isn't that amazing? BTW........This sat.10/27... I'm going to a wedding, the 2people that are getting married met online a year ago and fell in love after few emails, they decided to talk and each felt that they met the Right Person for them.......that shows U the remarkable things of the NEtworld ------------------ "To understand others you should get behind their eyes and walk down their spine."
