Screen love

My amateur attempt at poetry, inspired by a random line I came across on Twitter.
Screen love
We are in love at two ends of a screen Are we in love with the screen? Or the life we have imagined and coloured-in, between these two screens. If we are a world apart then is the imagination of the continents in between, colouring our romance It's a beautiful and sensual world that sets our pulse racing when our fingers touch the screen And our eyes read meaning into the words, fonts and emoticons that are seen We throw the best of ourselves to the ghost of our romance Will this magic survive when alas our fingers finally meet? Are we just in love with the screen?
