She Was Hard On Herself

In a fantastical shimmer of a glimmer of bliss
In a torrid cyber relationship, too good to miss,
In a ring of circumstances, she tested her faith.
In tiny bits, measured out, by her precision lathe.

In retrospect, she realized she was hard on herself.
Devoid of pleasantries, hope ran amok on soul’s  shelf.
The improbability of ever fully knowing
Made her reflections just part of her inner glowing.

I like the rhythm, the rhyme, the pace of this poem,...and also the topic, a cyber relationship. It leaves much to the imagination. :) gw

It certainly does as I have no idea what I was about when I threw this down onto a page.
