A Flood

Thu Mar 11, 2010, 7:48 AM
Just one last flood.
This is just some of the amazing art and artists that continuously inspires me on this site.

005-You never were poeticWhen I met you
  You were stolen song lyrics,
                knee deep in notebooks
   Tartan mini skirts and
         hand-knitted wool jumpers.

  Sneaking swear words into
                                church registers
You were Sharpie covered scars
   Telling strangers they looked sad.

 
this one is for the daughtersThis one’s for the daughters
We were all once dreamers
Then we grew up.
The word baby means something so different to us now.
Baby means a real thing, a responsibility, a caring, a longing, an offspring.
But it still holds true.
Baby- Noun.
Meaning love.
Holding an affection to the speaker.
Sweet talk.
Darling.

Remember baby, that I felt like you did. I believed in the things you did.
They are not wrong.
They of your age.
They are the beauty writers find in their words.
Artists find in the muses.
Dancers find in their pulse.
Designers find in mess.

Baby, you dream in multicolour.
You write in pen.
You have no fear
PlumitHey maybe ill send you
a thousand tiny love notes
but ill write them out with
black permanent ink
because you are colour blind
[you cant see me when i am red
and i runrunrun away from you
you cant see me when im green
and i starestarestare at the girl your with
and you cant see me when im blue
and i crycrycry into my pillow at night]

Ill write a thousand cryptic messages
and replace real words with half assed riddles
because im truly scared of telling
exactly how i feel [imsososorry]
ill stick them in an envelope
and address them to the boy who stole my heart
but i wont put a return to sender on the back

I've been working really hard on LYFA things. So those should be up soon. I decided to do something different. Playing on some ideas. Soon. <3

I hope all is well with everyone.
Keep creating!

Also - thanks again to :MasochisticHeartache: for the subscription. I really enjoyed it.

Of course!

(I realized after the sub was up that I forgot to put "icon" in front of your name. I would go back and edit it, but then all of the thumbs would go bye bye.)

No worries. It usually takes me about a month to get everything sent out. So if it doesn't get to me in time - then I'll just store it in my box for next year. <3

No stress! Just love. Hope you're doing well.

I know! I love every bit of it.

Especially the little scraps of floral fabric! They have already started growing into things in my brain. Can't wait to give them a shot. <3

I'm glad you're liking the states!

I think where you are is a bit different than where I am. hahah. I've definitely never seen a phone/ipod vending machine. Wow. I need to see the West coast sometime.

I like it here... it's just a little too fast paced for me. You know? Always feels like everyone's rushing everywhere... but to be honest - I'm not sure where they're all going to. And it's easy to get swept up in it. I have to continually remind myself that this is it. The present is all the happiness I need. (I want to continue to grow - but to still be okay with where I am.)

I didn't have trouble with that when I lived in Germany. I was much more centered. Much happier. And much more myself. (Guess I really didn't have anyone that I felt I had to impress as I couldn't understand most of the people there anyway - and a good deal of them couldn't understand me.)

Anyway! Rambling. Ha. Sorry - it's been a while since I've gone off on a rant. More mail headed you're way soon. When do you return home?

Yeah... I've been kind of busy lately. It's weird. Making art but not uploading it... *shrugs*
