Description Alone is where I'll wait,
      and alone is where I'll be

Waiting for you
   by the shore of a sea...
       that thrashes, and crashes, and sings to me

Sings of things forgotten
    and things yet to be
  'til past and future intertwine
     to embrase this dream -- this reality

A song for love
     and a song for pain
A song of loss
     and one for gain
A song for hope
     and a song for joy
A song of dreams
      of death,
      ... of many things

A song for you,
     and a song for me --
        Two lost souls...

        ...dancing with eternity


----------------------------------


Well, this one took a little longer than I was planning on spending on it. But it's finally done Hope you like it...

The poem was inspired by the piece... not the other way around.

Oil on canvas 48x36"

-------------------

Wow... Wasn't expecting a DD for it. Thanks though, and thankyou to everyone who has looked/faved/commented on it. It is very much appreciated

I noticed some people asked about prints. They will be available soon, check back in a day or two

JezMM In reply to ??? [2004-12-19 12:35:57 +0000 UTC]

Wow, this is just the kind of surrealism I love. Wonderful colours on the sky, and the wierd buildings with the winding staircases are brilliant. I just love all the little bits of scenery within the doors too, especially the one at the front. The water looks just, perfect, very nice idea with making it flow out like that.

Original, imaginitive, and beautiful to look at, great job.
