Just about the feelings you feel when an internet romance doesn't work out

Intimate moments with everything but the physical
              Connection of the mind
Normal means of meeting
              Instead other ways you find
Typical conversations thrown out the window
              There is no time
Eventually  you will find all that you need to know
              Time will then rewind
Reality will then set in when truth meets with time
              Connection broken because of lies
Nocturnal moments filled with self- doubt,
              wonder and why’s
Eventually you understand you were sold on a dream
            on which your heart flies
To move on is easier when reality takes hold, why fall for someone
            you've never looked in the eyes

Reason being you have nothing to stand on
            except their profile of lies
Oh it sounds so good! It is all you’ve been looking for
            Distance is your only obstacle, you comply
Many wasted moments spent in front of a screen
            Hoping their words are truth, on them you will rely
Any day now you hope you will meet this love you found
            and all will come true.. the emails implied
Not only does the moment not come but now
          yourself you have to deny
Conscience won’t give you any peace
          even though time has flown by
Eternal hope and doubt will always be there
          every time you go online
