I appreciate comments and hugs on my art and I will always sign GB's in return and comment on anyone's art if they ask me to. Be warned that I will not be afraid to say exactly what's on my mind, although I try to be a nice person.
About my art: I always work by hand, and never use digital mediums. I use pencils and often ink out line art, and sometimes I'm even colouring them O_O
If anyone has a request I will consider doing them, depending on the request of course :p
I hope to meet many aspiring artists and cool people! Take care everyone and keep drawing!
This poem was in the first post of a blog I started reading, chyldeofthenorns.wordpress.com
Please be warned the blog is for adult readers. The poem however, I wanted to share with whomever comes by.
Angel Girl
It takes a secure girl,
To let go of her pain
To conquer every trial,
And break off every chain
It takes more than heartbreak
To break her
It takes more than one storm
To shake her
It takes more than a chain
To make her—
Stay down—
She can take more than that
Every girl is an angel,
Her heart is her wings
Some are set free to fly,
Others are tied down by strings
Every girl is an angel,
Free to dance and free to sing
She’s allowed to enjoy every moment,
And the happiness life does bring
It takes an angel girl,
To remember what she forgave
To cast away her bitterness,
And not become its slave
It takes an angel girl,
With a heart so bold and brave
To pick up her halo,
And overcome her grave
It takes a strong girl,
To smile through her tears
To pick herself up again,
And continue to persevere
It takes a strong girl,
To face her every fear
To overlook the negative—
Every glare and every sneer
It takes more than heartbreak
To break her
It takes more than one storm
To shake her
It takes more than a chain
To make her Stay down
She can take more than that
It takes a joyful girl,
To keep on singing along
When her days darken,
And everything goes wrong
My fingers stretching out into the darkness surrounding us. Have we shared our secrets now? Did you wish, like I once did, that you and your daughter were the same age and friends? I see sometimes, in darkness. Not with my eyes. I see with my heart. You didn't know, did you, for all those years I had a secret too? Or maybe it wasn't that special. Not like yours I guess. You say you didn't take damage from it. It is ancient history. You weren't like that girl in my dreams and in my heart. You are your very self, someone I can never dream of. Though you are shut off like me. And you have your secret, like me.
The darkness around is filled with memories. Yours surround me like my own. I grasp out for them, trying to hold them, placing them in my heart. I see you as I remember you, had I been a child your age. Had I been your friend, would you have told me then? Or kept it hidden from me like you kept it hidden from everyone else?
I hope it did not cause you pain. Or suffering. I love you, like my sister, like my mother, like my daughter, like my friend. You know me, you know how the blood would boil in me and how I would swing my sword of anger should anyone harm the ones I love. Maybe you thought I didn't care, and maybe you thought I only raged for my own sake. It was not long ago that I woke up. You must have seen it. You did not know what I awoke from though. I awoke from nothing and into the darkness that is our secrets. A secret awoke me, hurling me into this dark world. Here I gather all the pieces I find, picking them up and placing them in my heart. Filling me up with pieces of shattered glass. Inside me they might become whole again. Do you think I have that power?
Next time I see you I will look you in the eyes and let you know that I will never let go of you. A piece of your secret is inside me now, and I will always remember you. This piece of shattered glass will give birth to something new and whole. It will make me whole.
I plant a kiss on your forehead and I whisper a prayer. To the one I know in my heart. The one who repairs all pieces and creates a window where we can look to the other side. Beyond the darkness. To something bright and without secrets.
Within Temptation has become one of my favourite bands, and here is a taste of them for the ones who have been unfortunate enough to not have heard of them before.
Another band that I like is Nightwish, although I can't really say I like their new vocalist as much as the old one.
But my absolute favourite is Emilie Autumn. In fact I love her music so much I even bought a plane ticket worth 5 times the concert ticket to go see her. For real. I will add some of her music later ;)
I am so confused and dont understand anything, lol. Why did otaku have to change? It was so nice and kozy and now Im just scared to go here because it all makes me so confused... I will try though, because I am not going to leave otaku just because it scares me... Gambare!
