Online Friends.

Talking and Chatting
with friends online
Learning from one another
One day at a time

It all starts great
Friendships so kind
But then there are some
who want to play with your mind

In person it’s easier
to spot the deceit
Online is difficult
when they seem so sweet

Who is this person
that you confide in
Are they what they seem
Are they genuine?

Some don’t realize
or have a notion
On the other end of the computer
is a person with emotions

They get so tied up
in what they type
Each person they see
is just another “byte”

Friends should be treasured
with Sincerity
Not in fantasy
But in Reality

Do not use or abuse
in cyber space
Treat the people
as you would face to face

Remember it’s a person
that has a heart
And not just a thing
or a computer part
