Behind My Eyes
by Mark Cocke sr.
This book is a collection of my many emotions experianced at the hands of people who did not deserve to have children, or have been trusted to have cared for children in any manner. But this is also a book about the many feeling I have experianced thoughout my life, such as becoming a Sailor, a Husband, and a Father,all scary in there own right but an adventure all the same, and somewhere in there I had a masive stroke and have had to learn to live all over again, and I guess though my writing,I'm doing just that, one page at a time. I would like to dedicate this book first to my lost childhood,I wish I had the chance to know you,there is a lot of pain in these pages as well as some good feelings too,and second, to my loving wife Stephanie, for she is my rock.
