Description And you know and you know
Cos my life's a mess
And it's starting to show so before
I'm old I'll confess
You think that I'm strong you're wrong
You're wrong
I'll sing my song my song my song
~~~~
Life's too short to be afraid
So take a pill to numb the pain
You don't have to take the blame
- Robbie Williams

I'm not nearly as strong as people think I am. I try to be, I do. But most of the time? It's a facade. Sometimes that facade breaks down and people can see me for who I am.
Lots of words. I hope they all are legible - it not, I'll edit with a list. Probably full view would be good.
And yes, I take pills to numb the pain. Don't worry - they're all prescribed by my psychiatrist.

You've been doing some pretty powerful works lately, I think this one conveys pretty well. I won't presume to tell you how to feel or say something cheesy like "ah buck up now," but I do hope you are coping along ok.

Thank you so much. My artwork is an outlet for me. A way to release negative emotions, thoughts . . .so they don't turn into something more. I AM doing well - much better than I have been in the last 3 months. I had some scary moments, moments I wasn't sure I would pull through. But I have amazing support . . .family, friends, coworkers, my therapist and psychiatrist. Without them, and without my art, I wouldn't be here to type this. We'll leave it at that.
But thank you. Really
