Farewell, My Almost Lover.

 A world of Wi-Fi wonders and emoji snogs

where digital parts prance in private blogs

I met a flame a digital delight

an almost lover glistering in virtual night.


Her pixels were poems her emoticons sweet

we'd LOL together our connection discreet

But in neural networks of likes and shares

I stumbled upon a truth that no one declares.


Her messages were cryptic like a well-coded game

I deciphered the symbols but it wasn't the same

a ghosting phantom she vanished in digital ether

leaving me lost, like a redundant feature.


In that smiley jungle my heart went astray

love in this 21st century a peculiar ballet

she left me hanging like an unsent text

my almost lover I’m perplexed and vexed.


No reply nor a read receipt

I pondered our love in this digital suite

In our binary forest my heart won’t recover

I sighed, defeated, "Farewell, my almost lover."
