Book Cover & Preview Text
Let me…
Let me kiss away your fears
Let me feel your pain
Let me taste your rain
I know you have been hurt before
I know your heart is a closed door
I just want to love you
With all that is me
Just give me a chance
And you will see…
Let me erase your sad faces
Open your heart to me
Let me love you deeply
Let me restore your spirit
Let me renew your smile
Let me tickle your soul
Just let me stay for awhile…
Let me show you how I feel
Let me show you, love is real
Let me open your mind
To new possibilities
I can do all that and more
If you just let me
You Were the One…
You were the one I loved
You were the one I trusted
You were the one I cared about
You were the one I couldn’t live without
You were the one I wanted to marry
You were the one I wanted a family with
You were the one I wanted to share my life with
You were the one that made me smile
You were the one I opened up to
You were the one I felt safe with
You were the one, yes you
But you were also the one that really hurt me
You were the one that made me cry
You were the one that shattered my heart
You were the one that made me feel like
I was living a lie
You were the one that hurt me deeply
Because in my heart I thought
You were the one…

About the Book
The Afterthought—
The title speaks for itself…that moment just after the act has been committed where we find ourselves reflecting upon what has just taken place. The attempt to grasp the magnitude of past events…What did it mean? What is the next step? That moment where we define or redefine ourselves into what we are about to become. That moment just before we exhale and reality sets in...that moment is…The Afterthought.
