Tender is your kiss
Yet more tender is the way
I’ve learned to live without you
You thought I would get burned
Playing with your fire
Yet I walked away
Leaving flames behind me
Among the smoke
I saw your hand
Reach for my heart
But I reminded you
It’s water you need
As blood is butane
In the wrong hands

Speaking of fire... How are you doing out there? Are you safe where you live? It seems like the entire state of California is on fire at the moment.

Thank you for asking friend, we are quite a ways but can have the same thing happen in our area as the hills and trails behind my property are full of dead vegetation. The only living things right now are the jojoba and chaparral and the occasional sage. The rest is all dried brush. Acres of it, I hope no one tries to start something, it happens unfortunately.
How are you and Daniel? I hope all is back to normal after the storms. :)

Leaving is an art! ;)

Love this piece and this is a new favorite photo of you, so beautiful.

Xo darling...

"I’ve learned to live without you." That's a great line. Yes, I lived that one.

The heart and soul are stronger than we believe early on in heartbreak.

Beautiful poem doll , best wishes to you❤️

Como sigues preciosa? Espero q mejor.
