-If We Met

Who are you behind this screen
I would truly like to know
Let’s meet tomorrow for a coffee
See how the conversation flows

Just through our written words
We have formed a connection 
But over coffee would we find 
We’d want to run in the opposite direction!

Would we be disappointed in each other
Feel awkward and just not click
Our mind racing rapidly for an excuse 
To try and get away quick!

Or would we meet for coffee
And it was as we expected
Like we’d known each other a lifetime
Meeting, the best idea suggested

How interesting it would be
If we could be a real life friend
Or is our connection solely
Through the words that we pen?
