Description
-------------------------------------------------
Yesterday morning you confided in me
About this life you despise
That you have never felt this lonely
And then I saw the sadness in your eyes
-------------------------------------------------
How do you give comfort without touching? I know Sara's just waiting for me to f#ck up our arrangement by hittn on her. Every guy she's ever known has eventually done it. Even relatives. It's no wonder she thinks all males are scumbags thinkn w/their dicks.
We spent time together after all the holiday tourists' left. She says she won't have to worry about the rent for a while. That's both good and bad. Good because it's one less problem, bad because of the cost it has on Sara. During an unguarded moment she confided in me about how she hates her life. How she hates herself. I do my best to be an unconditional friend and NOT think of holding her in my arms. It's the hardest when her sorrow drip from my ceiling.
She was joking about my lack of luck with girls in my sex life, that I must be in the closet and just don't know it. I told her I do find times difficult but want more than anything to protect her like a big brother. Like I wasn't able to do for Aiko.
I can't take away her pain. I can't even get rid of mine. The only thing I can offer is to teach her how to feel nothin.
NOTE TO SARA: ----------------------------------------
As you lay there on your back
You face a darkness twice as black
You're much stronger than me by far
You're much stronger than me - you know you are.

your words are always so intense, i get visceral reaction when i view your art. thank you, is all i can say.
I found myself inspired to write a poem after viewing this!!
gorgeous expression..wonderful..and Yes Danob, your words are very touching
you are a writer...your words come alive...but I think U know this..you love to push....pushhhhhhhhhhhhh our imaginations..those of us that are usually sinking in quicksand..no words or imagination..push our buttons a lil more please..S
Your portrait of Sara is excellent, but I take issue on her needing to learn not to feel. Feeling is her hope, just as your feelings, and you do have them, are the true proof of your existence.
Some survive on knowing when not to feel,not to be consumed,to wall off the destructive memories.As I said "when"not to feel.Only then can one "experience" an unburdened sense of self with out the spectors and pain of the very thing that keeps our souls from flying.So I agree with Yomah here.The reflection of Sara is exceptional and as always for those who are empathics as you are by "why" you are,it is automatic recognition in her eyes you acknowledge and seek to heal.Wonderous work and truthful art...........
