My Masochism
As long as he would hold me
The pain would have been alright
As long as he would ease my fears
Then embrace me through the night.

As long as he would justify
Every single little tear
And kiss away my suffering
His love, I would see clear.

But alone I wept in silence
As he waited in the hall
Alone I cried his name
Why would he not hear my call.

If he knew my heart was breaking
and in jagged ways it did
If he knew how I was aching
His own feelings he forbid.

Then I knew all the answers
As I clutched at my hair
He was trying to make me strong
So I too, would not care.
Last Words
When we last spoke, you were disgusted. I was a shrivelled mess of tears and knots in my hair.
When we last spoke, you were yelling. I was running for the door.
When we last spoke, you were in my face. I wanted to scratch your eyes out but was afraid.
When we last spoke, you told the kids to go downstairs. I held my hand to the knot on my head.

I was sorry...for being so weak.
I was sorry...for being so scared.
I was sorry for running out on you,
but not anymore. not anymore.

I have been working quite a while on this one. Little by little I finally finished it. I don't really know how else to describe this piece...other than it came from pure inspiration.

It looks really nice! I've tried on different occasions to draw something similar, but the rays would never look "right" like yours do. :)

That WOULD make a great tattoo! Actually I think it would look great on the belly. You are incredibly talented and I really love this one. There is a delicacy to it that is striking.

I think I may consider having this one on my back beneath the eight pointed star.
