Sunday sketches and 160




Am an empty shell
no use
come take my life
But not my muse
today would not matter to me
a year from now
unhappy, insecure, ashamed
your life would but be
a sorry excuse

  3. Those eyes could burn holes through steel and your 160 is equally as intense. Thanks for playing.

  8. Although I have been so discouraged in my life and felt like quitting, I'm not ready to give completely up!! Such sad words and perfect artwork piece to go with it. Wow. Thanks for joining us this week.

  10. Wow, both the verse and sketch are made for each other, they seem to go together perfectly. As well as the eyes, I find the mouth or almost lack of one especially haunting, quite mesmerising in a way.
