unknown zone
facebook friend
..........
(^^image from mashable.com^^)
the only definition
that seems fittingly so,
is that a 'facebook friend'
could be anyone...
you simply do not know,
the 'unknown zone'
may be the place they
call home,
it's somewhere 'out there',
not here, and not gone.
so dear facebook friend,
with communication
so penned,
wherever you are,
i cannot say,
but you've been
a dear friend,
forever and a day,
you are always there
with you cute
profile picture,
smiling as we chatter,
through the strains
of life's strictures,
i never met you,
and yet blindly,
we converse,
about everything online,
in fact, all in the universe,
you're there when
it's raining,
and even in the snow,
carved in digital
realities, which
little of I know,
but now the time has come
for me to clean up
this list, and i fear
i must delete you,
oh, please don't
be pissed!
exactly you're
mission, i dont
have clue, but
believe me my dear,
our friendship's
like glue,
on my page you
are hidden,
so you won't notice
you're not there,
til your next quip
or comment,
attempted to share.
we never exchanged
phone calls, or
met for a beer,
but my inbox is open
so you can email
all year,
you live miles away,
but believe me
of this,
you're as close
as you were ever,
even though we
n'er kissed,
if there's one
thing to learn
from this digital void,
is that social networking's
for fun, an accessory,
to be enjoyed,
because although
we are spirit,
this life is so,
so much more,
our friendship conceived
through this virtual birth,
but truly my friend,
our names on a list
does not show
our true worth.
