Description i put alot of me into this. have you ever wanted to just throw love away. feed it to the beast and turn away. walk on and never look back? i have. o many times. but its difficult. caught up between wanting to give it another trying knowing it has potential to be great. but also knowing its the most painful feeling in the world.

i live it.
i breathe it.
i am.......torn between the blood and the darkness.

no background. no fancy techniques. no filters or effects. no lyrics to represent.
only soul spilled out as art. enjoy or dont. its up to you for i let myself out and id rather be hated for my feelings than loved for my acting.

Aww...I love how it looks like the dark is coming out to try to steal the heart. It's so cute, and very emotional. I love it.

oh, i really really like this picture. and that is exactly how i am feeling right now. love can be the greatest thing in the world, but nothing hurts as much as having love, and then losing it. makes you never want to have to go through that pain again. well, superb job. keep up the excellent work.

Wow.... Nice description..

I liked your style a lot the last time I stumbled across one of your pieces, and now I'm startin to love it.

But you're still way too fucking melodramatic. It's impossible to take you seriously.

Bye for now, killa..

everyone always says everything that ever needs to be said before i get to say it. i have prayed for that darkness to wisk love away... to get rid of it because it hurts so much.

but darkness never came for it. only time.

I don't really know what to say about this piece because it is truely one of the best I've seen on deviatnart, yeah it may seem like I am lying but I'm not. It's perfect in its own disorder. Good job.
Take Care.

(I wonder if getting so many comments is like, "alright already, I get the fukkin point....".)

I agree with placebosuckerlav... really, this makes me want to cry. just because two people aren't right for eachother doesn't mean that love should be given up on... you hold a place in many hearts, my own included. love is something you can't escape, it runs through the threads of life itself. you have to show love for yourself to turn someone else away, even in breakign someone's heart there is love at some level. love doesn't make you miserable.. there's so much emotion in this piece, you can see it without even reading the description- I'm sure this has been mentioned, but great use of space. oh. yeah someone did say that. sorry I'm rambling- I hope I don't get you in trouble- I know you said it's ok as long as it's not on the mainpage but I'm still paranoid lol... *HUG*

Great work, I can relate to the feeling.
I like how you just let your emotions pour out onto the page and speak for themselves.

vortexcycle [2003-09-23 12:42:44 +0000 UTC]

Your piece is simply awe inspiring. The pain of love is a difficult thing to deal with, and walking away is sometimes the only option, but regardless of how much hurt it might cause, you don't have to let go. It’s something you can hold close to your heart, and keep it, as the small treasure it is.

Been there many many times and this piece manages to capture all the thoughts and emotions that one's going through in such a time. It's simple, which is perfect because nothing distracts from the main message and emotion.

I appreciate a statement like this coming from you.
it means more..

love can rock sometimes too, you just have to find the right person to give your heart to, and that process often EATS away at your heart....
