About This Guy I Met

by Cathy   Oct 22, 2007


We started talking just two months ago
with you emailing me and calling me from Iraq just to say hello
we became friends and I started to like you to
something inside me just wanted you

We exchanged pictures, and you look so fine
With every pic I just thought, I want to make him mine
It was like a connection we had even though you were so far
but now I wonder where you are

We got to know a little about each other each day
you always made me smile, you always knew what to say
your charm hypnotized me, I just didn't believe
that over the Internet, you can take hold of me

I didn't think it was possible to feel the way I do
over someone Ive never met in person, I only talked to
I thought about how it'd be just to hold you tight
I dreamed about kissing you each and every night

You were a soldier stationed at war
I was way over here just needing you more
you were due back in the states this October 14th
we made plans to finally meet

But I haven't heard from you, and I wonder why
was everything you told me, all just a lie
I think about you, and I miss you inside
this sadness I hold onto I can't seem to hide

I only wanted nothing more than to meet you one time
even if it meant I could never make you mine
you became a friend to me, you gave me more smiles
than any other person has in just this little while

Our conversations on the net, and even on the phone
filled in that loneliness I felt while at home
you told me things I longed to hear
and I was a little surprised that I shed some tears

I wonder to myself did I fall in love
you are the only person I can think of
since the last time we talked its been now two weeks
and still I wait, hoping its you I can meet

I wonder if you made it home OK
I wonder if Ill get to talk to you again someday
I pray to god your not completely out my life
I pray that you surprise me by a phone call every night

I just miss you and I know its a little strange
but I can't help but wonder if things have changed
where ever you are, please be OK
and please come back in my life someday

    Aw Cathy

    This is heartbrakingly sad. If its true, i hope beyond hope that he picks up the phone to you.
    You know there could be loads of reasons, he might of had to stay out there longer last minute and not had a chance to get to a phone or whatever?!
    Hm, it pains me, i know you have had a lot of heatache but you have got to stay strong and keep writing these wonderful poem's.
    Take care.
