To Know but not Really
by Susan Davis
So strange this feeling
To meet someone I've haven't really met
To know someone I don't actually know
To desire to learn more but sure I never will
To feel connected not knowing what I'm connected to
To read words, thoughts, feel moved by them, but never hear a voice
To meet someone I've haven't really met
To know someone I don't actually know
To desire to learn more but sure I never will
To feel connected not knowing what I'm connected to
To read words, thoughts, feel moved by them, but never hear a voice

Author's Note
These days we connect with people virtually that we'll never meet or know. It just feels strange to me sometimes to feel like I know people that I really don't.

I know this feeling well. Consider adding this to the @geek group? *
A great commentary on communication in this era of virtual reality and avoidance of touch.
Thank you for the comments. What's the @geek group. I'm rather new to all of this.
Mmm. "To feel connected not knowing what I'm connected to." Amen.
