Description I spent the morning playing around editing this photo from a shoot i had today.

Somehow this photo feels like me... i was awfully neglected during my childhood days... i used to stare at walls... my thoughts would seem to race as the blankness would evolve into pictures to occupy my loneliness... it feels like time has stopped moving....

I always asked myself if i was ever wanted in this world. Why do everyone have to be so busy with their own lives... do they even care about the others around them?

Sometimes i do question my existence and i can't seem to find the answer to my being.

White-washed walls,
Cracked and peeling
Stone tiled floor,
Broken and dirty
The one glass-paned window
Its centre missing
My single chair
Old and splintering

it's amazing how so much expression is in your face, so much pain but also so much beauty!
I don't like the wall on the left though, it feels as if it is cuting of something. You maybe should have sat more to the left that there would be more space between you and the wall.

maybe it is the wall that brought out the dimension of the picture... i tried cropping it up closer and that is the best i could do....
