Excerpt
The Other Half Of You
Funny sometimes
How lines get drawn
Though not present
In the heart never gone
The day will come
Stronger will you be
A love shared by two
One day will set you free
Futile is this fight
Known whats meant to be
Each night tears in your eyes
Your souls truth holds the key
Only so much pain
Before the mind breaks
Within the new life
The future creates
Love stays strong
Patient and true
My soul, my heart
The other half of you
I love your work, Cheryl! You are truly in touch with your inner self. You have a very emotional, personal approach to your writing that is real and can be truly appreciated. I look forward to working with you and am excited to be a part of this beautiful project! :)
Recently, I had the pleasure of reviewing Cheryl Bousquet’s new book Reconnection with Love (Publish America) and being a vivid and picky reader of poetry, I was skeptical on reading her book. Nevertheless, I am very glad that I took the risk on reading her book. Reconnection with Love is a book of poetry that speaks of love in every form.
Her beautiful poems are works of art. The way that Cheryl expresses herself through her work is heartfelt in so many ways. Reconnection with Love speaks to its readers because we all had gone through some emotion as the author herself. These poems truly spark hidden emotions that we do not dare show to ourselves.
Nonetheless, while reading this beautiful book, I could not help but to feel as if I was reading poems from the golden ages of poetry. Every word can connect with you in such a way that her poems will say how you feel for you.
Cheryl might be one of my favorite authors – those are hard to become in my personal library – and I definitely will be looking forward to hear more from Cheryl Bousquet.
I recommend the purchase of Reconnection with Love to anyone that loves poetry; better yet to anyone that is either in love or out of love with someone. You will not be disappointed!!!!

I cried when I read the book because of the beauty of love and the words that describe an unconditional union.
