It's the internet culture issue and contains my poem "Hearts Beat As One" which I wrote back in 2009 when I first became aware of, um, "long distance romances" on the net...this also marks the first time I'm actually getting paid for a poem btw...
Btw, it was inspired by the Bo Diddley song "Dearest Darling" particularly these lines; "I once had a heart so tender and true, But now it's gone from me to you, Take care of it like I have done, For you have two hearts and I have none."
Hearts Beat As One...
When people ask me how we met,
I never tell them on the net,
'Cause people just don't understand,
What happens in this cyber land,
But it's love for me and you,
A love that is oh so true,
Although I long to hold you tight,
Hold you near with all my might,
I pray for you upon a star,
Even though you are so far,
And though I long for your touch,
I dream about you very much,
In another time and place,
I could probably see your face,
And we could sit and share the wine,
But you have yours and I have mine,
And though you cannot be so near,
I hold your image very dear,
And so I give you all my heart,
Even though we are apart,
And though you have two and I have none,
Our hearts are together and beat as one.
