"Crossroads in the Cloud" was inspired by the unique connections we form in the digital age. In our online interactions, we often find ourselves at a crossroads, unsure of the true nature of the bond we're building. This poem explores that sense of uncertainty and the importance of open communication in navigating those relationships.

I wanted to capture the delicate balance between the excitement of a new connection and the need for clarity and honesty. The poem encourages a thoughtful approach to online friendships and potential romantic interests, emphasizing the value of mutual respect and clear intentions. I hope it resonates with anyone who has experienced the complexities of forming relationships in the digital realm.

Ultimately, "Crossroads in the Cloud" is a reminder that even in a virtual world, genuine connection is built on honesty and open communication.

Listen to poem:
Across the wires, a spark ignites, Words dance and weave, through digital nights. We laugh, we share, a bond takes hold, But where it leads, a story untold. I see your wit, your passions shine, A connection forming, a curious sign. But before we delve, in deeper streams, Let's clear the path, set honest beams. Are these words a bridge, to friendship's shore? Or whispers hinting, at something more? No need for pressure, no need to rush, Just open hearts, a gentle hush. Tell me your hopes, for this connection's sake, Is it laughter shared, for friendship's sake? Or does a flicker, of something else reside? Honesty's compass, a path to guide. With open minds, our course we'll set, Respecting boundaries, without regret. This virtual space, a world to explore, Together we'll navigate, to what lies in store.
