I'm Tinu. My name means Love.

all i do*

all i do stevie wonder

all i do
is think about you

old stevie wonder joint
cranking in the background
that joint that makes you think about love
that joint that makes you feel your love
that joint that makes you look for your Love
whether you have one or not
your mind wanders to a face or a place
where you once or still find love

all i do
is think about you

old stevie wonder joint
has me remembering times in the park when we
danced in the sun
tumbling down a hill of green pleasure stretching before us

i thought i was in love
in love with being in love
though i knew i wasnt in love
with you
we had a great time
didnt we?

all i do
is think about you

old stevie wonder joint
pumpin in my head
i remember when i realized that i didn’t actually love you
and that feeling of being in love came from being around you
and seeing all that you do

how you selflessly were living
and constantly giving
straight from the heart
no bum was too dirty
for your spare change or your uneaten lunch
it’s because of you i will endure an afternoon of hunger
for strangers i have never met….
thank you for helping me find myself

all i do
is think about you

old stevie wonder joint
got me all blue and yet happy
cuz you made a real difference in my life

and because of you
i can make a real difference in other people’s lives
it started with my little publication in college
and now i’m an activist for life
you taught me how to be free and i thank you
you taught me who was me
and i thank you
and

all i do
is think about you

stevie wonder joints
about freedom, or love make me think
i think about the difference you
would have made
i think about how hard you worked for others
with no money paid

i think

about a drunk driver taking your life when you were pulled over to the side of the road to sleep so you wouldn’t hit the other people on the road why couldn’t you just go to a rest stop you make me so mad but i still love you you will always be my big brother and i miss you so much it hurts and i feel the impact and the fire of the explosion and heard your voice in my bedroom that night 100 miles away from the place where you died on impact

no one understands my grief cuz they don’t think i knew you well enough
but they don’t know how you changed me
and they never saw us together, laughing
and they never knew we kept in contact

and they don’t see that if you can fall in romantic love at first sight, you can
fall in friendship, too

and the night before you died i remember your eyes
hopeful and ready for a journey
cuz we had spent the afternoon together
our mind messiah and the 13 of us

i remeber your eyes
talking about the journey of the soul
and, as i told my girlfriend that night
overcast by two red glowing lights

all i do
is think about you


*Rest in peace Reggie and Vince…
