Excerpt
How Does
How do you hide
Run so fast
Afraid of today
Still terrified of the past
How does fear
Settle so deep
Consume your soul
Truth cannot you speak
How does light
Fade to gray
Trapped in darkness
A voice fades away
How does a heart
Pretend not to race
Within each beat
Complete embrace
How does love
Each day stay strong
Apart we may be
In thought never gone

I Just Am, You Just Are
The poetic words of Cheryl Bousquet take on a positively elegant form in her book, I Just Am, You Just Are. From the very first poem, the reader is greeted with the essence of deep emotion. She wraps our hearts up in her usual warm blanket of honest feelings and inspiration but adds more of what feels like a smooth, melodic, and soothing whisper that lingers throughout the soul. She creatively escorts us through emotions that have the ability to create specific, realistic, and vivid moments in our minds and hearts such as what happened when I read her poem, “Slender, Silver Band.” She encourages us with poems like, “Hope Does Stay,” and “Part of the Journey.” There are many beautiful treasures found within her book. I Just Am, You Just Are is a symphony of various emotions all playing together to create the wonderful music of love, of honesty, and of poetry.
