Description
The darkness that is your life...
are the shadows the veil your sight.
The sun that finds no way in,
has you living in the abscence of light.
It's odd to wonder how this all began,
odd how you feel so forsaken.
You pray every night the light can find its way,
but the rage is consuming you from within,
and her memory haunts you every day.
it drives you so hard to hide behind the pain
She lingers on your mind
it's the hate that never seems to fade...
You love her,
You hate her,
'...I can't live without her...'
Screams are so loud but she can't hear.
You've pushed her so far away.
Why does it have to be this way?
Your ability to love is so, so far gone,
It's so easy to be afraid,
and hide away from your fears.
Maybe it's time to look beyond,
push away the hate,
and once again embrace her golden light

WoW!!! Another favorite from ghostwolf! ^__^
I would hate to be the person or thing
(maybe dragon? *__* but how can a dragon fall in love with some sort of human?!?! 
that is in this position: Hate & Love

Thank you! This is more metaphorical in terms. Think of the dragon as the dark inner workings of ones mind and she is the one he wishes he could have if he could only get past his fear and pain...

Oh, wow. This piece of work is enthralling. I love the details and the mirror-like image of the woman...the dragon looks almost intimidating and life-like...

I'm not qualified to offer you any advice; all I can say, is that this is a quite magnificent work of Art. There's a touch of H.R.Giger influence in this composition; especially displayed in the grey/blueish tones.
As you quite rightly said; the full version really gives the viewer a fantastic look at the unbelievable depth of detail you've put into this. The delicate contrast of tones and lighting adds even more interest to this composition.
You obviously have great talent and imagination, and I certainly can't fault this piece. I think it's just awe-inspiring work!

Very nice detail and colors. The lighting is great.

that's something like I would draw... if I had more patience...
for critique... all I can say is her nose looks too pointed for me. The dragon and rest of the stony part is great, though.

This needs to be larger! I can barely see the details!!! But, WOWZA!

Beautiful, both the picture as well as the writing! Great job on the tiny details in the picture, and I love the blues used rather than the blacks and greys that would usually be used in this sort of thing.
