It is sad to me that there are mean men out there who abuse their girlfriends or wives. It is something we can do without. The abusers are men who do NOT deserve to have a wife or kids!! A wife and kids should go to a loving, kind, compassionate and warm man who appreciates the beauty of a wife, and the preciousness of kids. Kids are the jewels of life. They deserve so much more than the fighting, the anger with some parents. Parents who are clueless as to how damaging anger is, and how a child's life can be shattered into a million pieces by a harsh word or a hurtful punch from a raging parent.
Let us be more loving and compassionate to each other. It is time to put away anger and hate....
Nice piece...
No more abuse!

Your welcome for the comment!
Your are absolutely right - There is NO excuse for abuse at all! I personally know 3 women who have gone through physical/verbal abuse in bad marriages to horrible husbands. They are divorced now, but it blows me away on how stupid some men are! I can NEVER ever imagine myself abusing a woman in any way!!! I know of one woman who was SO severely abused, that her ex husband was a DICTATOR!!
He actually made her crawl on her hands and knees and BEG for money! 
Here I am alone, and DREAMING of the day that I can meet a very special woman to marry and raise a family, and here I am watching these Stupid Jerks who have families take their wives and kids for granted! The guys are so clueless on how to be a decent husband and a good father to kids.
I made a promise to myself, to God and the Universe that if I were ever lucky enough to be married, that I would NEVER abuse my wife and kids! I would treat my wife with loving affection, compassion and as my best friend!

u r very right.... and its just mind boggling how everything we want.. we dont have.. and the things we have.. we just take for granted.. i hope u stay true to ur word

Sweetie
I sincerely plan to stay true to my word...
Do you know what a miracle a woman in my life would be??
I would gently hold her hand in mine, and would gaze upon it with love. I would weep tears of pure joy if I had a woman to love. I have no one in my life, so I live a life of extreme loneliness and I cry when I see others in love. The one thing in the universe I want more than anything else
The very thing that too many take for granted. I dream of touching a woman's shoulders so softly and gently.... feeling the warmth of her skin with my fingers. I dream of hugging a woman in my arms, and to enjoy the tender moment and embrace
I dream of looking deeply into the beautiful eyes of a lover, and to be one with her heart 
I live in a world of loneliness, where there is no woman to love. I watch as an outsider seeing others falling in love, while I go home to a lonely, soulless house. No one to say " I love you" to each day. No one to give flowers to. No one to hug at the end of a long day. No one to laugh or cry with at the end of a day. No one to cuddle up with on the couch, while laughing at a funny romantic comedy movie. No one to snuggle up with in blankets on a cold winter nights, feeling the warmth between our bodies. Skin to skin, heart to heart, looking deeply into each other's eyes.
No I have been cursed with loneliness, as I watch everyone I know from family and friends get to enjoy love, I am left out. It seems like love is forbidden for me to have. 
I am the man who will cherish love like a beautiful diamond. I am the man who will be romantic, and take my love out on mystery dates.... full of joy and surprises...
I am the man who will let my woman cry on my shoulder when she has had a hard day. I am the man who will massage her back and feet, getting rid of the stresses of the day. I am the man who will spend hours in foreplay, and make sure the woman of my life has many orgasms before I even have one...
But I guess the cruel fate is that the Universe has decided that I, the most compassionate, romantic man should not be in love. Instead the idiots and jerks get to be in love, while loving men like me get pushed aside and ignored.
Oh... how I dream of love. A gentle kiss. Holding hands. Sitting together in the park and enjoying company with a lovely woman. But no... I shed many tears as i go home lonely and unloved. Forgotten by a world too caught up in good looks and money. Where is true love? Where has it gone in the world?
I dream of the things many lovers take for granted....
So Yes, I will be true to the one special woman in my life. She would be my miracle, and I would treat her like a queen....

wow... thats a lot for sure..
but i dont think anyone is alone by reason of cruel fate... u need to be happy with urself.. with ur daily life before u can go and enjoy a day with a wife.. u cant really learn to love someone until u love urself.. and the same goes with.. u cant really enjoy the time of others until ur able to enjoy time on ur own.
I wish u luck.. and may u soon find someone for u.

I am happy with myself, I have tried everything in the world to meet someone. I have tried the bars, collegs, dating clubs, networking with friends, trying to meet someone at work.. etc. nothing has worked.
Here I am getting older, and watching ALL my close friends and family getting married and having kids, while I am totally left out of everything. I am getting older and have more grey hairs now. I want to experience love before it is too late... before I am really too old to make love or even be with a woman.
I may not be the best looking guy in the world, but hey... I would be more loyal, trustworthy, loving and compassionate than a hundred men out there...
I have been alone for 20 years, so it is really old to be alone now. It isn't as fun as it used to be, as I've done what I wanted to do. I can't imagine growing old and dying without ever experiencing true love in this life... I still wonder what that is like....
The greatest miracle in the world is to be in love with someone, and to be loved back. Nothing else matters.....
Finding someone to love is harder than finding a diamond on a sandy beach... it seems almost impossible...
I may have to give up and just become a lonely old monk locked up inside a cold, damp and isolated tower reading and writing ancient books....
To not ever have been in love is to never have lived at all...

nice to see a photo that actually means something...instead of the crappy emo horror bullshit i usually see. I'm guessing you wanted it dark but i think a little more contrast might make it more pleasing visually...just a suggestion

I think this may be a more harsh concpt in color. Then you can show red rug rash and purple bruises. Although, this has a snuff film quality to it.

It's truly riveting piece. There is strong contrast between the horrible abuse and your natural beauty. And I like the small details, like finger mark, fingers close to your mouth (for me that symbolic to vulnerability). What I really admire about you is that your eyes are vibrant and expressive and rare are people who can show such dark despair through their eyes. Your work definitely touches hearts of thousands.
On the side note, have you ever listened to Lisa Germano's album "Geek the Girl"...there is a excellent song about a stalker and abuse..it's called "Psychopath"...
That's all...thank you for sharing

Thank you Shari. You know that I don't say much, but belive me I admire other people's work more than my words can tell. And you are no exception...you are truly talented artist and I'm sure your work inspires and touches many people...beside artistry, you have that emotional impact in your works that is not easy to match. Again I say it's an honor knowing you
