Who Am I To You?

Do you know? Written for those who haven't said good-bye after all this time.
I'm not your wife,
Not even your lover.
We've never met
And you don't love me
Don't even lust me.

So who am I to you,
If I'm none of these?

I'm not a neighbor,
We don't work together,
We don't even live
in the same state.

So who am I to you,
If I'm none of these?

I AM your internet friend,
The one you laughed with,
Chatted with,
Shared with,
All these years.....

Thank you for standing by me
through it all.

Written for those who haven't
said good-bye after all this time.
