Description I've been working on this for a couple of days and finally decided to call it finished. I'm in a lot of pain from my knee, so I've been thinking rather morbid thoughts about death and all that good stuff.

I dedicate this to !nomikjustkaty , because she knows a whole lot about pain, and I wish her a speedy recovery, and to *Driven-Crazy , just... because.

Credits:

~Iamthedark wrote a gorgeous poem inspired by my art. Go it on his page!

Barely breathing, afraid my breath will break you,
If I can hold you, I can love you, so don't fall away.
Don't fall away , for I'll be lost,
you're my heart, my soul, my hopes and dreams.
Don't fall away , for I will surely be insane,
Without you I can never feel anything inside me.
If I can hold you close enough maybe you will stay, and fill the emptiness with healing love.
Don't fall away, don't you dare fall away...

I hold this bubble in my hands, as i do your love in my heart.
Soft and fragile I tremble with the thought of losing it; of losing you.
You are so very far from me that I can only feel you inside ,
I long to see through your eyes, to breathe your sweet breath.
Come back to me and call me '' home''. Claim my love as yours.
So I'll hold this bubble, as my love, until you come and set it free.....(: ..iamthedark

This is beautiful Artwork Marie. It is a powerful image - so full of emotion.

I too am concerned about Katy, and hope this dedication to her, will offer some comfort.

Pain is something we share, and I know what terrible thoughts come with it. I'm sorry that you are suffering Marie, and can only hope you feel better soon. You are a good and caring person, and I feel glad to call you my friend.

Take good care of yourself,
Yan

Thank you very much!

She said it made her feel better, which really made my day. I'm glad it could make her happy even if it was only for a few minutes. Awww, thanks! I'm glad to have you as a friend, too.

You're welcome!

If looking at it takes your pain away, or even makes it just a bit less painful, then it's more than I ever hoped to do with a humble manip.

I really hope you start to feel better soon. I'm keeping you in my prayers.

It's pretty. I like how you can't see where her dress ends. Makes it feel all dream-like.

This is stunning! She is such a part of that picture. You've done an amazing job putting her in there. I absolutely love the little glass ball she's holding. For me, it represents how fragile life and health are. One little slip is all it takes and then it shatters. Amazing!

Selfish-Eden In reply to Driven-Crazy [2007-09-30 03:55:18 +0000 UTC]

Squee! Thank you! I'm glad you like it! It took a lot of tinkering to make her fit into the background, so I'm glad she looks like she's part of it. Dude, that's exactly what I had in mind when I made it. Freaks!
