What If I Let You

WHAT IF I LET YOU? >What if the hardest feelings to forget are the ones that never had the chance to become anything at all? What If I Let You? is a collection of 100 poems about attraction, hesitation, chemistry, timing, temptation, and all the quiet moments that live somewhere between almost and never. It's about the person who makes you wonder. The glance that lasts a little too long. The conversation you replay later. The unexpected calm you feel beside someone. The things you almost said. The lines you almost crossed. >What if? These poems move through shyness and desire, softness and temptation, fear and curiosity-the private feelings we don't always admit out loud. Some connections become love stories. Some become memories. And some never become anything at all... but somehow, they still change us. For anyone who has ever had a maybe that felt bigger than some people's forever. What if you had been braver? What if the timing had been different? >- Tenisha Lee
