Absent the Tenderness

See her on Skype, text her Call her anytime Why isn't it the same Why's it feel like a game You miss her touch her tender caress The emotions conveyed in a hug or a kiss Grateful for contact It's lovely to reminisce -- Absent the tenderness There's no pathway to bliss

Okay. Send her a bear (of fav animal, very soft) tell her it is because you hugged it, and wanted to hug her. Then send it... when you skype... use candles.. the room she have scent, hers. Remember, it is hard for her too, so lead, you are a poet, a VERY VERY GOOD ONE... talk to her... make her want to come home. Ann
