"Tender"


 


You look so tender
You look so “fine”


I just want to touch you
As you look at me
And I don’t mind at all
“Okay”
Just mind your steps
And never forget…
When You…
Stepped into my heart
It became very fragile!!!


I feel kind of numb inside
I had a morbid bitter taste within
Trying to make sense of it all
I write nonsense…I know


Like fantasy dreams …Ghalo
Just telling my story as it is
Ever since that very first moment we met
I loved you right from that magic moment
There was A bell ringing in my head
And went straight to my heart
It was all so very easy you know
I could not resist to just love you
And all I can say now
Is that I miss you like crazy
And love you even more so


Distance kept you away from me
And I stayed in this dark cloud
There is a void in my heart
And a foolish smile upon my face
That smile is the expression of heartache
The curtain to cover my pain within
O God I miss you so!!
Please fill this void soon again

I'm always in awe of the way you express emotion so openly, Tinka. Is that what drew me to your work? I could learn a thing or two from you. Hope that void is filled soon. Luv ya sis...Lin

beautiful love tinka, no smile is foolish, it might look foolish but anytime we can produce, ace not duce!

Feeling love
thrilling love
so appealing love
dealing love
stealing love
squealing love

love just the same
ignites some flame
some fire
something burns
life churns
some action
some satisfaction

Tinka, If this is written about someone you really love then I will give you the same advice I got today from my Sis. "Go for it and grab happiness with both hands! Cherish it all today, let all the tomorrows take care of their selves". A true love Tinka is a very special blessing. Just take hold and believe...........Love ya Tinka

No nonsence you mean?
Your writes are most necessary for us all..
Love that picture. Their almost there?
Lurve ya 100 per cent and much more than
a barrel of monkeys.
More than candy, chocolate my favorite.
A lot more than Santa....
Maybe more than a sirloin steak.....co0ked right..
More than the mo0n and stars and fast cars.
A friend to love is a lurvely thing.......Smoo00ch!
