                            I sit and I think..
                            wondering what makes us tick
                            why we go on..
                            and where the road leads..
                            the people I meet..so many differences
                            so many similarities
                            idiosyncracies..
                            ironic at best
                            emotions, thoughts, actions and moods
                            so many things affect each day
                            so many things make one react in different ways
                            is there a reason for it all?
                            or is it just shallow, senseless drivel?
                            -
                            I sit and I watch
                            as people draw to each other
                            not knowing why
                            but pulling closer
                            ever closer as each day passes
                            as each word is spoken
                            as each touch is felt
                            -
                            I sit and I watch
                            as the lives intertwine
                            through a medium of a different design
                            one that touches the heart and soul first
                            physical limits are gone..
                            a medium of words only..
                            pure emotion through the wires..
                            -
                            I sit and I watch..
                            feeling the presence of those who I meet
                            feeling thier needs and making them smile..
                            -
                            I sit and I ponder..
                            is it worthwhile?
                            Do I really aide those who I care for?
                            or am I just teasing my own mind
                            the reasons why do not matter to me
                            For I shall continue to be who I am
                            helping others where I can..
                            for those I truly care about..
                            my heart knows no limits
                            for those who touch my heart
                            my love knows no bounds
