These feelings I feel,
they never seem to be real. Jumping around and around, never seeming to stay still. Just what I need, as my heart skips a beat. I look at you, and realize what you mean. You're just out of my grasp, you're in a fog, and I can't slip past. Maybe the things you said were true, do you really hate me too? We've always laughed together, even got called a couple a few times. But it's never been you, you always have been lying. Not wanting to hurt my feelings, but all the while watching my friend. My BEST friend. I've said I don't trust easy, you took that to your advantage. Left me standing in the rain, I was just so close, to letting you in. But then you left, walked right past me and into her arms. I stare, knowing I had lost. To two people I thought I could trust with everything, but theres no way to have everything, when you have nothing. Left empty-handed, you pulled the last string, that had already been tight. Shattering me into many pieces. I thought I could trust you, but you really do hate me too. I'm not sure what I was thinking when I wrote this...I just know I am very confused. I wrote this just a second ago. I just have a feeling something is going to happen soon and I'm not going to like it at all...not at all |

Your art is pretty good. Both aspects; writing and images.
One thing I'd like to pick on is your writting is in the past tense, has a gloomy/gray feel to it and is always pointing out something negative. However! Your pictures are fairly positive. Even when black and white they still have a positive aura. If you had a Poem/writing that dealt with the positive aspects of nature you could combine it with your picture of the trees/leaves. If you had a Poem/writing that dealt with the human impact on nature and how behind every human activity there's life. The can of 'Sprite' indicates human activity, but the soil and the dying leaves are rich on minerals for plants and life! (Every Art needs a DEEP meaning) You should adjust your writing to fit your Photography, that way your picture will speak 1000 words and your writing will be the epitome of those words. Do not think I am trying to be mean or judge you for no reason. I just think if you combine both in harmony your work would be perfect. |

The only thing is...I am usually stuck at home when I write and I am depressed there and I write how I feel...I rarely ever write something cheerful except for this [i wrote it for a contest]
You know, I've always had a sweet tooth. Those cravings you get for those awesome sugary goodness treats. Yeah, those things. But I have a sweet tooth for cookies... which is why this plate of them I made for you is gone. I didn't mean to, but they called out to me... telling me to eat them. And I just couldn't ignore it. So I hate to say... I made you a cookie, but I eated it. But thats it...my photos...well thats hard to explain. I let the person I used to be out when I take pictures, I can't do that when I write becase that's not how I feel. Most of my poems, ar eusually about cutting because that is how I get rid of those 'feelings' of wanting to cut. I use what knowledge I have of it, the pain I remember when I was so close to doing it, and put it on paper. It's how I am, I dunno. Unless forced to write happily, then it's an impossible task for me. |

Pfft, you can do it. You have a cheerful personality. You cannot let your art be sad.
You teach Art how you feel and then Art will teach you how to feel. Art is a good way of keeping a state of mind. If you wish to be upset then through art you can draw powerful images, write meaningful text to create that mood for you. At the same time, if you want to cheer up, you do the same thing and your art will help you cheer up. It's a matter of what you want! Be selfish and be confident in your art. |

You must not know me very well....I'm not that cheerful in reality. The internet is my protection, I am pretty weak and can't be cheered up to easy once I'm down. I doubt I could write something happy right now even if I forced myself to. I'm to down, and I don't know why. I hate full moons, this happens everytime.

Yes, I know you. I know you are a human being, a human being capable of learning, capable of changing, capable of adapting, capable of everything.
I don't know who you are, but I know who you can become. You have art, you should trust in your art, channel your energy and use it trough art to cheer you up. To change you. ^^ You're only feeling depressing, writing it down and then getting depressed some more. Why? Stress is bad for your health. So, why not use your art to change yourself. It will be a slow and long process, but in the end you'll channel your negative thoughts into positive thoughts automatically and then, finally, you will start thinking positive. |
