NPM 5: Untitled

You intrigue me
Yet I feel I hardly know you.

I know you through exchange of words
Of thoughts
Of ideas.
But that's it.

I wish I knew your face,
I wish I knew your voice,
But for now all I have to go on
Are your words.

I'm perfectly content with that,
But my curiousity is not.
It is, however,
Willing to be patient.

My curiosity can be content with words,
For now.
But it will persist.
It'll have to win out.

In a roundabout way this was inspired by "Falling Slowly" from Once (this particular rendition happens to be one of my favorites).
