You My Love

You wanted fashion of
             chic boutique,
             I could only offer you
             affection in front
             to the sea...
             You wished caresses of
             rare and expensive fur,
             I could only caress you
             with my tanned skin
             of coastal sun ...
             You wanted to run
              world map...
              venture on cruises
              mediterranean ...
              I could only take you to
              the impressive waters,
              of red sand ...
              In lieu of Côte d'azur,
              I gave you Tambaú ...
              rather than Mikonos,
              I introduced you to Paquetá ...
              You wanted cold from Las Leñas,
              I offered you human warmth ...
              You wanted gold, diamond,
              I offered you what I could,
              fair bijou ...
              You wanted to live unreality,
              I gave you real love
              and shelter ...


  Tambau, Mikonos and a'zur are places

Hello Alakas, some women want fancy things to wear, shining jewellery gold with diamonds, A huge stone on a ring. etc. Not all women are like that way.Some women are practical. Salute Darlene

Hello Alakas, this woman you met a long time ago, she is in for a rude awakening. She should have settled for what she had. No man will put up with her that way. Anyway she was not for you. Salute Darlene
