Your kiss is whiskey-smooth:
Love, I assume. (But it’s just)
eighty-percent proof.

Cool Haiku Gina! 😊👍
Mind blown! How cleverly composed! Diluted! 80% proof! Brilliant!
Fantastic!!! Nailed it!!!❤️❤️💕
Oh yeah! This turned out so freaking awesome!! And the pic really worked well. Excellent one for the series :)
Yes! I know those types. Well done, my friend.
Yes! Love the haiku, telling a whole story in so few words. Also love the picture as well.
Oh! Interesting.
There's always someone who loves the other more in a relationship and it sucks to be that person. Loved your Haiku!
LOVE THE TATTOOS
Love the tattoos on their necks that represents (to me) how invested each one is. Great work, Gina C.
Awww , but well said Gina, a lot in so few words
