Modern Romance

Modern Romance:

is a series of 
					messages across
profiles inflated,
					balloons full of
hot air.

it is an annulment signed and dated,
easier to wax seal than talk through.

it is a leaf without veins to drink,
a dragonfly with no charger.

it is a wind that creates no lasting breeze,
a beach with rocks for spittle and plastic for lips.

but sometimes those ongoing
					anonymous messages might
even eventually
			meet.
