*******

Fallen (poem by me)

I know you are
but the stars have stopped writing your name
trailing the sky the stardust leaves traces on my eyelids
the night is so shiny, you said
I remember you said it would get so very, very cold
I know you are out there
spelling your name backwards and restarting your memory
every time your eyelids grow heavy and you rest your dreams
on somebody else´s arms
and out here
the trees are crying silently, just like a whisper
spoken by soft, but dry lips
it´s the ancient song of the forgiven, forgotten and
those fallen

I know you are

I really feel the sadness in this. The detail and textures are amazing. Beautiful work.

I´m glad I managed to reach out to people with this one. I drew it during one of the first few days I spent with my mother before the funeral, she was too worried and distraught to go anywhere alone. So I went along everywhere and ended up sitting in a cold room on a terrible chair for two hours, it was a nasty evening, dark and sad. And then I drew the princess. And it was worth it.

Oh man... I've been there. When my grandparents and uncle passed and I just felt so helpless to do anything for my mom. Waiting, sitting and feeling so sad and useless is dreadful. I'm glad you got something good out of it.
