oh, wow, this one is so cool! the perspective really gives the crack a feeling of movement as if it's creeping forward while you're watching. you get filled with trepedition when you watch her head; anticipating the unstoppable crack reaching her... overall it really gives off a feeling ofΒ  inevitability and dread. good work!

Thank you so much for that description.. (:
some thing seem so inevitable, that you can't really stand up to do anything about it.

Looks like you're going to fall head-first. How fitting.

Just lying there in wait, almost wishing to fall into the darkness and never come back out. There can be a certain comfort in the dark, in a way. It hides us so well, after all, and secrets us away from everything that may hurt us, or from everyone we worry about hurting...

That said, it can also be so cold and lonely, no matter how far we let ourselves fall into its open arms. The cold cannot soothe the hurt, no matter how much it numbs you up.

Though there are hands of others that are so much warmer, so much more able to massage away the aches and pains. Even though it can often be hard to see them in the dark, with persistence and a bit of luck, we can find those outstretched hands of theirs.

(Heh, not directly related, that just conjured up that image of the Nigerian sailor who was rescued from a sunken ship after surviving underwater for days in total darkness. Rescue divers were looking for bodies to recover when suddenly one of the hands grabbed back, still determined to survive.)

Ah, how brave you are for persisting through the dark! The bear will catch the bunny from falling and rock her gently to sleep, bundled up snug in his warm fur. <3

Sometimes I wish I was really just a bunny.

Mmmm, everything would be so much simpler then, wouldn't it? Hopefully, a bun with a cozy warm burrow and many delicious things to eat!Β

'This sleepless depression'
I don't think I've ever felt anything but that, ever since I was young sleep was more illusive than anything. I only learnt restful sleep when my friend stayed with me during those nights, but she is gone... and I'm alone. I can see the wound slitting towards my eyes as well. I don't move either, it seems pointless to try... even if it's upsetting. I know I've been through worse than some time without sleep, this is day... how long has it been now? A while, that's certain. I digress.
Sleeplessness is... hard to explain. If you refuse to sleep like I, for it brings back... horrid and terrible memories, then sleeplessness is a unhealthy escape, but one of the only escapes. I've been told to sleep over and over and I should think positively when I do, but it's not that simple... combine PTSD, Aspergers, and depression what do you get? Me, someone who is... just in need of something, and I don't know what. Maybe its in the cracks underneath me, lying beneath, almost looming over. Maybe sealing those cracks leads to rest? I'm not sure...
Time may tell if these sleepless depressions well pass, but our own abilities will show you how to use time well. I hope you rest soon. Thank you

(Sorry for rambling a lot, but this was well timed for me... sleep is, getting harder)

Never ever apologize for rambling. This is the place to do it. I encourage it for everyone..Β 
I hope your tired eyes will find that one thing that might help..Β 
For me it's only been medications, that I'm oh so thankful for.. but there are times when even that doesn't help..Β 
I'm so sorry you have to endure this..

This precious being with tired eyes watches this crack appear and it doesn't distress her, she just understands. I want to sew up the crack and cradle this precious person and move her hair out of her face
Gracie the low angle you achieved here is almost like a POV from the depression. Seeing what it's like to come torment her again and how she receives that news. I really love the titled angle It's very beautiful.
The crack takes up the larger part of the image so you really get a feel for that cleft skin like nature of the depression crack. It feels like a terribly split open wound and... now that I realize that as I just typed that a horrible feeling travels down my spine.Β

"I've still got hope..." -The Former Friend on Inevitability


Laying on the tracks? In the snow? It's hard to make out exactly what's here. But I suppose that's part of it. The why needn't be there, just that she still is down. Excellent work as always Kapani.

I think it's a representation of the inevitability of death, and how we can't do anything to prevent it from happening.

I don't know that was my half baked analysis on this. I was literally half asleep in school when I made that comment....
