Heartfelt
She knew she had to find her heart
not remembering where she placed it….
maybe it was lost, or stolen…...
stitch up the wound
tug, pull, tug
nice and taught
no one will be the wiser
Let not a tear be seen to escape
down thy cheek, stinging and hot….
melting and blistering pain….
dry up the rivulets
pat, blot, pat
no one will see the stain
drawing I started on paper then finished in photoshop and corel, all background images were taken or made by me as well as the figure.

A surprise for the senses..
She is a beauty..
She is a doll..
And the bird is her song..
with wings to fly..
when she will find her heart…

just curious, but what’s up with that profile?? you looks distraught or something… no need to be so stressed … just relax a little take a hot bath or something to relax , make sure you get as much sleep as you need too… that always helps.. I should do the same too
Laurie McClave in reply to Dragoncat’s comment, 2 months ago
It’s ok to be curious, he he it’s just a funny picture! sort of theatre! I know I need to relax though, thank you!
