Funny thing is, this was created months before i knew anything at all about pain...
...and i'm not entirely sure what you could possibly mean..

Great shot, Lori!
I must admit that I'd have loved to see it in a horizontal format - and with your feet included - even at the risk of setting off the perverts again...
Reason: The angle of your face corresponds almost perfectly with the angle of your legs. As such, it gives you the option of making the viewer's eyes follow either direction naturally to an end point of focus.
An object placed beside your feet (flower, doll, book, etc.) adds depth and adds "body" to the overall context. In this particular "context" you used the out of focus foreground *perfectly* to portray that sense of isolation that relates well to the "healing/time" theme.
I'd also like to have seen an out of focus shriveled rose in the foreground. Somehow I believe it might have reinforced the overall "feel" and the message "Not all good things last" but, as always, that's just me...
I think you got exactly the picture you wanted.

Hey kiddo, what can I say? You're my hero.
When I grow up I wanna be just like you. Young, enthusiastic and talented...
In answer to your question - I see you as a story teller. Much of what you create are mysteries without answers - only clues. And I think you do that on purpose whether you realize it or not. You excel in simplicity and, to that end, I'd only suggest that you experiment with making your "few" elements stronger in the compositions to emphasize how they relate (or contrast.)
Yeah, the rose would have been a great counter point for the shot. (Trite, but effective done properly.) Then it's up to you to decide:
Fresh or dying.
Where is the actual point of focus? The rose, the model, somewhere in between or none of the above?
The same stories have been told a million times, so it's how you choose to make that story yours that makes all the difference. POV is everything.
Seriously, I enjoy watching your work evolve. If I can help play a small part in that, then you can count on me.
See ya!

Perhaps i shall..
There can be be a fine line between too much and just enough negative space, but. It could be an interesting thing indeed to play with.
Thanks, Thomas.
