Description a house of cards,
a supple heart,
..is not a place to dwell.

now you have your cake.
don’t hesitate.
come on, just do it.
come on just do it:
put it in your mouth!
there is only now;
tomorrow has to wait
...but know there’s no backing out.
this is gonna be reality.
you can never dream it down.

i have no way of telling the two? apart.


well i made amends,
[in the general sense]
...but the devil’s in the details.
and i know the cost,
and i want to stop.
...but i can’t do it.

i just can’t do it.


i put the past into the ground,
i saw the future as a cloud.
..if theres still time to turn around??
i'm going to.
its just one day i fell asleep...
..and now all day, all night i dream.
i am the first one i deceive.
if i can make myself believe?
..the rest is easy…






p.s. i haven't hit "submit" yet, so i don't know what the colour quality will be this time via dA lameness, so DOWNLOAD FOR ACCURATE COLOUR!
BUT,
if it's accurate, for once there's one thing i didn't photoshop out and it'll like stare at you. surprise. it's there.

Hi, I used your photo for reference because it came up when I was searching for stock and I didn't find any rules for stock usage in your gallery, but now that I'm posting this here I see that it's actually in the Photography section, not the Stock section??? I am not sure what happened.  Anyway I wanted to show you, and if you want me to to take it down just lmk.   www.instagram.com/p/B5ZxDNqnog…

It's a hilarious book, though it is a little irksome as it pokes fun at the author's mental illness (OCD, anorexia).

The only thing I see obvious that I'm not used to seeing is the scar on your eyebrow, though I thought that might be from an old piercing.
As your first commenter said, "I love your soul, girl!"
I have to say I love the top you're wearing in this series of photos-- it makes me think of grunge and nirvana and the 'druggie' bands.. you understand what I mean? It feels like you're emulating them in a search for identity and understanding in the current predicament you find yourself in..
Aaah, right now I'm not emotionally equipped to comment on the significance of the lyrics and the emotion behind the art.

However, I will note that I see how far your collarbone is sticking out, and that worries me..

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

carvingbackbone In reply to Dymii [2010-04-09 20:19:35 +0000 UTC]

welp, you got it. that's my scar. annnd, actually, my eyebrow piercing that i got? was on the other side to be symbolic of "balancing out ugly with a jewel" from one side to the other. i always fix that scar in photos, but it really really stood out in this one with the lighting and i'm like, be bold; let it go. that scar is one of many remaining on my face -- maybe one day i'll share where on earth they came from.
as for the shirt -- soooo funny you should mention that. it's actually -- in full .. i really classy shirt -- if you can gt pix msg's on your phone i can show you that it's far from the grunge movement -- BUT! it's funny because in elementary school i was th epitome of a grunge kid and there wasn't a day that went by the me and my best friend sarah weren't wearing our flannel shirts, baggy jeans and airwalks. ...and we were nirvana, oasis, smashing pumpkins, radiohead -- you name it. so, hahaha, it was a funny blast from the past all the while completely understanding what you were referencing annnd, i can see that too. i have a few others from this shoot (with that shirt i may upload.
i know the emotion in this photo really emphasizing the words in the blockquoted section -- but i'm personally trying to weigh in on the final verse personally

as for my collarbone? i understand the concern, but i lost no weight; the collared shirt must have added a shadow since my more recent photos have all been faces or with shirts up to my neck. you saw our "fun day" photos .. i'm in mprrrre than healthy range. i appreciate the concern since you know more than anyone.

Dymii In reply to carvingbackbone [2010-04-10 16:26:31 +0000 UTC]

Aah, 'balancing the ugly with a jewel'. Remarkable idea! That gives me an idea for a character in a story I'll probably never write.. lol. I think it's good to let us see a little bit every now and then. I personally don't think it looks so terrible, but then what do i know? You could roll in the mud and take a photo and I'd probably still tell you how gorgeous you are!
Yes, I can get pix messages and I would love to see the full shirt! Either as another uploaded photo or as a pix, I don't care. It sounds like you and your friend had a great time wearing that stuff in elementary school.. I don't really remember choosing what I wore back then with any purpose, then again i didn't discover any other music than country until I was in middle school! lol
I'm very glad that you're still in a healthy weight range, and it must be the shadows from your shirt. I don't know the exact effects of this thing you're struggling with, but I know some things of this sort have effects on weight. Aah.. it's hard being vague. heh.

I believe that you want to stop with all of your heart.. forgive me if I've asked this before, I've got a horrible memory for what I have said while I remember things others say (usually) quite well.. Has religion helped you any through this?
