My Online Friend

Maybe you don't look me right in the eye

Maybe you can't ever wipe my tears when I cry

Maybe we can't share some tea and honey so sweet

Or walk together down a path, or up the street

But, we can still be good friends, because you see

We met on the internet, you and me

And when you have a cyber friend, it matters not

How you look, what you wear, or what you've got

I don't care if your last name is Smith or Jones

Or if your size is perfect, plump, or skin and bones

You're there for me and I appreciate you

You've been a pal through thick and thin

You shared my glad times

And in my sad times, you made me grin

So I send this greetings to you, dear friend so fine

To tell you, I'm so glad you're a pal of mine

And here's a hug, though not with arms

For that can't be...

But it's a hug, straight from my heart

To you, from me.
