Helpless

Helpless

I sit and watch as the sadness seeps into the face before me

Watching with growing desperation as the face slowly crumples like tissue

Feel the aching in my heart as the eyes start to redden

Seeing the tears well up in the sockets until with a sob they overflow

Spilling out onto the cheeks leaving streaks in the dirt

As they course down the face of utter despair

Washing over the quivering lips from which escapes yet more sobbing

Falling like raindrops from the chin to splash upon the floor

My hearts aches and breaks

And I want to reach out and cuddle and comfort the tortured soul before me

Helplessly I find I can offer no solace

I turn my back with a heavy heart

And walk away from the mirror

Just to kick things off, Hello Bloggers !

feels a bit weird coz this is my first blog, but here goes

I am incredibly happy to announce that I have a book cover, Casey Kelleher is Releasing a new novel Heartless with my Image of Lea Bridge as the basis of the cover




Heartless blurb and release date : September 7th 2013

Free from prison… but still trapped in a nightmare  .  .  .  having been locked up for a murder that she didn’t commit, Sophia O’Hagan is now determined to take back what’s hers.

Now, Tommy has gone and Sophia’s family has been torn apart. She knows that she will never know true freedom until she confronts the painful ghosts of her past.

Heartless By Casey Kelleher

~ James Thurber

The story is set in Hackney in  the part that I refer to as "Hackney's Hidden Paradise"
