A Vision or !!

Came home late, over exhausted myself at work. Had a hot steamy shower, made a cup of hot chocolate, and jumped into bed. Closed my eyes for seconds and made a wish….few minutes later you were here, your embrace came just perfect in time, wish to remain in your arms. Took me from the hand [...]

Tell him?!!

Tell him or not?? heard this question so many times, at some point of time I was in the situation of wether to tell him or not…although opposed by the “where’s your pride girl” cliche’, I didn’t really gave much attention.

from “while you were sleeping”

Do you believe in love at first sight? Nah, I bet you don’t, you’re probably too sensible for that. Or have you ever, like, seen somebody? And you knew that, if only that person *really* knew you, they would, well, they would of course dump the perfect model that they were with, and realize that [...]

Phenomenal Woman

Here is a part from Maya Angelou’s “phenomenal woman”. Love this lady’s self esteem, she is really phenomenal. Respect when women know their real value, and make use of their existence.
Pretty women wonder

I’m not cute or built
to suit a fashion model’s size
But when I start to tell them,
They think I’m telling lies.
I [...]

Let others havethe privacy
of touching words and love of loss of love.
For me, Give me your hand.
