Caged and Afraid...

Caged in That's why they call them "rib cages" Didn't you know? I hear the thumping hisses and calls Made to the steady rhythm of a thumping Drum beat I tried to set that tender Meaty flesh free once, The echoing symphony of every Screaming emotion blared raging In my sensitive ears Too loud for my hushed mind. Which feeling to feel first? I didn't know, so I felt them all. And madness had never felt so much like home. Frightened like prey in the open field Set bare and certain of the coming death That is found when everything is too much Too at once Like a tragic epic tale. Deep breaths to find that space where The monster Meaty flesh Belongs to. Which feeling to feel first? I didn't know, so I shut them off. And that madness haunts me like I'm missing home.

Go grow Yourself Only you are here All along, you've been looking back Now is the time, to try again Don't drop the ball because of this, that, or the next excuse.

Twenty Nineteen

Twenty hands, nineteen waning moons Twenty lands, nineteen setting suns A man is slowly falling Before the next life has begun He'll set his soul down at the tide Before the century is done When the empty basin fills the great divide He'll rise again to meet the right hand That painted the sunsets on the land That painted the stars in the sky A man is slowly falling Before the next life has begun He'll set his soul down at the tide Before the century is done When his flesh burns at the pier Know his spirit won't disappear The waning moons will ignite The light that his next life will be alright Twenty hands, nineteen waning moons Twenty land

Suffocating

Exhaustion on a sunny day How the humidity comes And clots the lungs Her vessel leaking sweat and tears Alone but surrounded Suffocating on smiles Suffocating in a vice that should warm Suffocating under an arm that should be safety Suffocating... Guilt laden moldy roots within the crevices That her pain is shared with an innocent Unknowing but Suffocating... A loner shouldn't need a crowd when there is exhaustion on a sunny day in the same way A crowd will never notice the loner Suffocating on smiles Suffocating in a vice that should be warm Suffocating under an arm that should be safety Suffocating - because her loneliness is the cool rai

Kansas Wildflower

I am a Kansas wildflower transplant, whose new soil isn't sturdy enough for the likes of me... I am stretching for the sun, but there's not enough green to keep me sprung. I'm suffocating on the hoards of people, where I used to be surrounded by trees, My leaves are falling feeble, because they surround themselves with things instead of seeds... The small town atmosphere that supported my stalk, has been changed for more dust and concrete, I am following the clouds like an arm on a clock, How long until my bloom wilts to meet the street? I am a Kansas wildflower transplant, whose new soil isn't sturdy enough for the likes of me... I am str

The Thoughts twist and tangle...

Many hours separate the miles of oceans who beat and pulse their waves. Between two bonded mates bodies these waves mock their lifestyle. Meditation doesn't drown out her madness, Distractions do not make mild her depraves - The thoughts twist and tangle Like vines in her ears, their roots make a mess of her mind. Their blooms overcome her eyes - and the tears water the garden instead of pooling trails; That should venture down her face... a pocketed and blemished field of changes... He sleeps and dreams of their bed back home, blind fantasies. His garden he planted in her of yet tilled seeds, take

Are you?

Apple cores buried out in the garden, Ringing chimes sing in the wind, Evergreen blades damp with the morning, Yellow and pink littering the light, Orange lilies slowly opening, Under the open sky... Apple cores buried out in the garden, Sweetly hoping for the day- On which they will root, Near ringlets of ivy at the base of the fence... Growth is a universal desire... Orange lilies slowly opening, Ringing chimes sing in the wind, Apple cores buried out in the garden Whistles of the wind caught tight in the leaves, Apple cores buried out in the garden, Ringing chimes sing in the wind, Ringing chimes sing in the wind, Indigo marbles los

Of a Sirens Silent prayer

Pearly tears of treasure Ringlets of wet hair Ethereal gazing into the unknown Gathering stardust off the waters edge Nautical charts in the foam on the waves Abstract air blown against the sitting moonstone Nautical charts in the foam on the waves Transform alongside the serenity Abstract air blown against the sitting moonstone Nautical charts in the foam on the waves Distracted from the complexity Abstract air blown against the sitting moonstone Fear looms on the breeze like a salty breath Ringlets of wet hair Abstract air blown against the sitting moonstone Inside the haunted beauty hides a lingering thought Distracted from the complexi

Worth the Wait

All along, those words had echoed Wait, just wait and you won't regret waiting How true that saying is, doesn't settle until later When you are looking at someone who needs to hear Those words - wait, just wait and you won't regret waiting Do not settle for less, my dear, just wait a little longer Find what you want for yourself, figure out what that means Well, from myself to your imagination I do not know how that experience will dance out for you But all I knew were a few simple things All I wanted, was for someone to meet with me head on Play with me like children play Tickle fights, stargazing, long walks, arcades Joke with me like a bes

My Bio

I love art of all varieties and styles, as I like to try new things. I hope to someday do commission work. So if you have an idea let me know. You can see more of my 2D work on my blog www.aprilsartjunk.wordpress.com

Anyway, want to know more about me? I think this sums it all up in a nice little quote from Matt Groening "Living creatively is really important to maintain throughout your life. And living creatively doesn't mean only artistic creativity, although that's part of it. It means being yourself, not just complying with the wishes of other people."

Current Residence: a place at a place with a roof, someplace on earth :D
Favourite genre of music: Rock, Pop, Rap
Favourite style of art: anime, still life, portraits, traditional
MP3 player of choice: Zune
Favourite cartoon character: Gir!-Invader Zim
Personal Quote: Trying to forget someone you love, is like trying to remember somebody you never knew...

You are very welcome for the watch and the llama! If you see my art, and enjoy what you perceive, mayhaps you'll offer me the favor of returning the watch! ^-^

And, also, my apologies for not returning your comment sooner, life has been...well...complicated...

If there is anyone who completely understands a complicated life, it is I... well wishes are sent to you fellow dA artist

And mayhaps - absolutely

Say that* not saw that. Damn autocorrect. Lol

Larathain

Mayhaps? Interesting, I saw that. Though many people have taken that verbalism from me and pass it off as their own, I find it interesting when it returns to me. I wonder of the steps it took to come back to me.

I saw it and thought it an interesting way of having been said, I have heard it before from people but don't use it myself. Language is a great tool of expression.
