Computer Love

“It was the art of our words made it too real, too raw to hold No skin, no touch, just me and you, connecting through the cold” You the rap, me the poetry, flipping lines, bending reality Midnight texts, late night confessions, we built our world in these digital sessions No bodies, just words that kissed, metaphors wrapped in lyrical twist You spit fire, I bled prose, two different streams where the river flows But then you disappeared, like a ghost in the code bro, no warning, no signal, no way for me to know You say I’m always there inside your dreams but when you vanish, I only have a blank scene Why do I ache for a place I never touched? Showed my secret parts, was that too much A part that aches when you disappear, the one that types your name in silence here I’m strong, yeah, but see I’m human too, and sometimes the nights get cold without you I always hold my own, keep my guard up high, but in the dark, at times I wonder why Why does a ghost still feel like my home? Why does your silence cut like a stone? I ain’t begging, that’s not my way, just wishing you’d hear what I don’t say Maybe computer loves just in the code, but here I am, still writing ode Soft don’t mean weak, and heart don’t mean broke, I’m Rebeltease, I’m love wrapped up in loving smoke I keep these words burnin’ deep in my veins, lighting up all the heartache and pain A computer love is felt deep to the core Yet the screen at times leaves me craving more “This is for the poets and the rappers who meet in the dark, for the love born in verses that left a permanent mark”
