This is a poem written by the lead character in my book. It's a prayer from a dying heart.
Invisible No Longer
A distillery atop a hill,
Holds my lonely heart.
A love once felt, a warehouse boy,
Under a sea of stars.
Promise given, away I ran
But nothing did I gain.
Only that which is void of love
Filling me with pain.
Clearest blue, topaz eyes
Sparkling right at me.
In his eyes, I see your face,
Where I want to be.
A lion roars and holds me down,
Those fierce and golden eyes.
Pierce my heart,
Blood drips out
From each and every lie.
Trapped inside a lion’s den
Fresh meat to be devoured
I beg for freedom, my own release
Each and every hour.
A whispered prayer sent to the sky
Invisible to see.
But felt within this dying heart
More real it cannot be.
Love is real. It does exist
I felt it in your care
Loving me with no return,
I see it now. It’s there.
