PREFACE
Turn all the pages of this book
Read out the words and take a closer look
At all the pictures of a life so sad
This is no life you’ll ever wish you had.
This book is full of things I swear are true
Things I would not wish for the likes of you
Because you’ve always been special to me
The feelings come now much less frequently.
Most of the hurt that’s felt is held inside
It stays well hidden for I have my pride
I’ll never show the things I really feel
Or I would surely deeply suffer.

Hi Marvo,
I wondered why you dropped the rhyme on the very last line? It seemed to come to a jarring end.
Should it not end with a word that rhymes with feel?long the lines of
‘Or my deep suffering would become too real.,
just off the top of my head as an example.
Anyway, I think we all have our hidden book of life.
