Analysis of Chat Room Romance
Tommy L. Maddox 1972 (North Carolina)
Logged on and my heart is beating fast.
For, I know she will be there waiting.
We talk and flirt all night,
and sleep through the day.
Waking up to talk,
No patients, we can't wait.
We flirt, we play, and we love.
In our chat room romance.
She wants me to visit,
but she lives so far away.
I tease her and pick,
and when the time is right.
We'll send each other text,
and we will tease each other right.
Love with a push of a key,
and a click of a mouse.
All for our chat room romance.
