Modern Communication - A Poem About Love and Texting

I want to talk to you

tell you all the things I feel
but can't express.
But how can a ':' become poetry?
Closing a ')' opens up countless possibilities.

And if I put a '3' after a '<' my heart will be yours.

Thinking about you puts a smile on my face.
And I want to say so much more
than a ☺ can express.
But an image is 1000 words and love
can write entire books - libraries even.
Can you read them in my emoji?

So I type and delete again
hopelessly trying to write a symphony
with the beeping of my keyboard.
Maybe then you can understand
just how being around you makes me feel.
Let's try again. :)  <3  :*

That seems about right. Right?

You don't want to end up being your own grandfather, or something equally weird. That is the popular story anyway. What these textbooks fail to mention is, as you would expect, the truth. Time doesn't like changes because he is stubborn. And when he has spent what is, in very plain terms, Eternity, planning out how everything should work out, you can't just go ahead and mess things up. He will be mad. More than that. He'll be furious! And then, terrible things will happen. To you. ...
