Surfing in one afternoon

It was one afternoon
The sun was high
And it was really hot in the room

As I sit and stare in the monitor
And start to surf the net
All I see is different tag name

So I continue to search
From one site to another
Just to make myself busy

As the time moves on
Like the speed of the sever
From 200 to 256 kb

Then a message pop up in my monitor
From someone I don’t know saying, “hello”
Partly I ignore but really curious enough to answer back

so eager to look
to stop
and even to read

then another message came
from the same person who said “hello”
so I stop and give answer “hello there”

now, I wasn’t aware of the time
the sun are now sleeping
and so as the stars are starting to shine

for that simple “hello” from her
everything changes
everything has to happen for a reason

now I am still here
waiting and talking
sharing our dreams together

“… being with someone doesn’t guarantee happiness. Finding your other half does. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been alone, how long you’ve hoped, or how long you’ve waited. There’s no such thing as a perfect love story. Heartaches will always be a part of loving. But remember – though not perfect – if that love is meant for you, it will stick with you till the end. No matter how tough it gets, no matter how long. Far from perfect – but real…”
