Here's a Poem for you ,

I AM FIBRE, BONE AND SHADOW

By Dilly Dally

I am fibre, bone and shadow

But you see me I am an electrical impulse

Heard and earthed In the early hours

You write to me, pour your heart out

So that I will wake to beauty

Delicately you weave for me

A nest of words and comfort

Virtual hand holding

Letters of love

So that I may know your truth

I run my fingers over the page

And today I don't disappear
