When I Was A Little Poem by Tina Baaklini

My love,

When I was a little
I envied adults
Thinking their life is better
More freedom, less difficult

Growing up
I envied the little me
Whose greatest worry
Was to get a new barbie

But throughout my life
There was something missing
Within me, in my life and heart
A hole, a gap, an emptiness

When you entered my life
Spring spread in my heart as flood
And I breathed relief
Because for the first time
My heart and soul felt complete
