Bytes Out of Lives
by Anonymous

Little black words
race across a white screen
where faceless people sit.
All alone, yet not alone,
their lonely voids to fill.
Silent words scream out
and quickly draw them in,
painting mighty pictures
with wee computer palettes.

Little black words
race across a white screen,
busy filling hearts and minds
with thoughts of passion.
Each soul wanting to see
deep inside the other.
Hollow little word worlds
where things are shared
that shouldn't be.
