Description full view please.

here I go again
slipping further away
letting go again
of what keeps me in place
I like it here
but it scares me to death
there is nothing here

the light is beautiful
but I`m darker than light
and you are wonderful
but this moment is mine

I find comfort here
because I know what is lost
hope is always fear
for the pain it may cost
and I have searched for the reason to go on
I`ve tried and I`ve tried
but it`s taking me so long

I might be better off
closing my eyes
and God will come looking for me
In time

all of this dust
all of this past
all of this over and gone
and never coming back
all of this forgotten
but not by me.


Sarah Bettens - "All of This Past"

Description: I took this last week. I`ve been wanting to do a picture like this for a while. To me, pictures that do not show eyes can bring more meaning to a picture. It brings more mystery and question. The random hairs are supposed to be there also and you can see my freckles at the top. The original, I did not like. But after editing I actually liked it. I changed it to black and white, changed the brightness/contrast and added a border.

thank you very much.
i have always adored black and white.
I never understood why.
it takes out the color of the picture, but adds something better to it.
thank you again.

isn't it strange how the eyes really are the window to the soul? they are, you can have the person's entire face, but cut out the eyes, and i bet 6/10 times no one could guess who it is. i like this -

I love how this is cropped...it seems very emotional...very deep and you seem as if you are hiding. This is lovely!

Awesome. I always liked pics with eyes, but you're right...without the eyes, it does add something. Good work!

thank you very much.
I like pictures with eyes too...because eyes show a lot of what the person is feeling.
