We share these hands
We share the skin on our bones
We share these eyes
We share all the sighs our eyes have seen
Yet you're so foreign to me
The poking bones and heavy clothes
Hiding splotchy fearing skin
Biting chapped lips to remain silent
But we've come so far
And now I can reach into the dark
And turn your black into gold
And we'll remake this world
The one we call our own
We share the skin on our bones
We share these eyes
We share all the sighs our eyes have seen
Yet you're so foreign to me
The poking bones and heavy clothes
Hiding splotchy fearing skin
Biting chapped lips to remain silent
But we've come so far
And now I can reach into the dark
And turn your black into gold
And we'll remake this world
The one we call our own
Oh my goodness ;-; this is a seriously deep picture for me to draw, honestly.. It's inspired by the song "Little Me" by Little Mix, a song I found a while ago an instantly fell in love with. An image that I saw go along with the song looks somewhat similar to this in meaning... but then again I may have taken a deeper meaning from it (the two images are still very different and unique to their own selves). When I heard this song, it meant more to me than the words it physically portrayed, it meant so much more.... through the art, I personified my past, who I was when I was lost and being ignorant and blind, then who I am today, strong enough to look back and not fall victim of myself. I can't fix who I was before, she will forever be a part of myself, a part of who I am today and who made me this person. She is someone I love an hate at the same time with everything I am, someone I will never forget or try to forget, and someone I can be grateful of; she is someone I can look to and remember what I'd been through to get so far, who I'd found to get this far, and who I will spend the rest of my days loving and praising. I won't go preaching because I don't wish to offend anyone, but I do thank God, for he above all else pulled me through and saved me.
Thank you to all of my friends who were there for me, listing and offering help and distractions and laughs to make me truly smile and be happy, to offer me the love I thought I was lacking but always had.
There will always be light after the dark, and the darker you fall, the brighter the light will be
