OH MY GOD. I just wrote this really long and meaningful description of life and everything, and it got erased. What the hell. Just as I was saying...I'll just start over again. Geez. Okay. So this piece was inspired by a song by Meg & Dia (a band, not just a duo, there is like five members) called "Monster". It's truly a beautiful song, it really is. It's about (from what I know) a child that was a product of rape and their outlook and view on life, like...should they even exist? It's really beautiful. I like sad songs because life can't always be peachy all the time. Or at least that's my outlook on life from my experience. It just makes me annoyed, and mad, but I get a strange sense of humor out of it...when people who's lives have been "normal" (not really, us messed up ones are the normal ones...) and perfect and whatnot, when something bad comes along they freak out. No matter how miniscule it may be. It annoys the heck out of me, but gives me a twisted sense of pleasure at the same time. It's just that people who's lives are perfect don't understand a lot of things, and I know a lot of people that are this way. They just don't understand anything, that's why my friend with divorced parents and parents full of angst and resentment is my best friend (I have 2; one like this...one not...you know who you are, haha, Ms. Peachy). We can relate. We have a deeper outlook on life and there are so many things we can share that most other people can't understand so they can't help us at all. So. Saying that, I will close with the lyrics to the song. .

"Monster"

His little whispers.
Love Me. Love Me.
That's all I ask for.
Love Me. Love Me.
He battered his tiny fists to feel something.
Wondered what it's like to touch and feel something.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.
Looking through the window...
That night he caged her.
Bruised and broke her.
He struggled closer.
Then he stole her.
Violet wrists and then her ankles.
Silent Pain.
Then he slowly saw their nightmares were his dreams.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Creatures lie here.
Looking through the windows.
I will.
Hear their voices.
I'm a glass child.
I am Hannah's regrets.
Monster.
How should I feel?
Turn the sheets down.
Murder ears with pillow lace.
There's bath tubs.
Full of glow flies.
Bathe in kerosene.
Their words tattoed in his veins.

[EDIT] I had to edit the preview size. Haha. I also wanted to say these are different from the ones on my myspace, the ones on my myspace have different lighting and texture. Those are special edition. I changed the files so they are like this now, so yeah. I did them all at once with texture and gradients, so I went back and did them on the files and saved them. The myspace ones are darker than these and don't have texture if you people that don't have myspace, or mine, were wondering. . [/EDIT]

[EDIT 2] I did a lot. Haha. I took out the last image because, I agree, it didn't really fit because the background was different. I changed the first one, nobody pointed it out or anything but the lightingwas a lot different; a lot brighter. I did my best to fix that . So, hmm, I added more texture to that one too. I really love this piece. So much. . Uhm, that's really just about it! Thanks for all the positive comments and feedback so far! . [/EDIT 2]
