Emotional Flood
Wether Happy or Sad… Sometimes we just get flooded with emotions and they just seem to overflow…

Understanding (Wash It All Away) By Evanescence
“You hold the answers deep within your own mind.
Consciously, you’ve forgotten it.
That’s the way the human mind works.
Whenever something is too unpleasant, to shameful for us
to entertain, we reject it.
We erase it from our memories.
But the imprint is always there.”
(Can’t wash it all away)
(Can’t Wish it all away)
(Can’t hope it all away)
(Can’t cry it all away)
The pain that grips you
The fear that binds you
Releases life in me
In our mutual
Shame we hide our eyes
To blind them from the truth
That finds a way from who we are
Please don’t be afraid
When the darkness fades away
The dawn will break the silence
Screaming in our hearts
My love for you still grows
This I do for you
Before I try to fight the truth my final time
“We’re supposed to try and be real.
And I feel alone, and we’re not together. And that is real.”
Can’t wash it all away
Can’t wish it all away
Can’t cry it all away
Can’t scratch it all away
Lying beside you
Listening to you breathe
The life that flows inside of you
Burns inside of me
Hold and speak to me
Of love without a sound
Tell me you will live through this
And I will die for you
Cast me not away
Say you’ll be with me
For I know I cannot
Bear it all alone
“You’re not alone, honey.”
“Never… Never.”
Can’t fight it all away
Can’t hope it all away
Can’t scream it all away
It just won’t fade away, No
Can’t wash it all away
Can’t wish it all away
Can’t cry it all away
Can’t scratch it all away
(Can’t fight it all away)
(Can’t hope it all away)
Can’t scream it all away
Ooh, it all away
Ooh, it all away
“But the imprint is always there. Nothing is ever really forgotten.”
“God, please don’t hate me”
“Because I’ll die if you do.”
“Because I’ll die if you do.”
“Because I’ll die if you do.”
“Because I’ll die if you do.”

Lois Bryan
Nobody, nobody shows us ourselves … our own inner emotions … the way you do!!!! You have such courage to open yourself up this way!!!! Another glorious interpretation … technically magic!!!!! I read Wayne’s comment, by the way … seeeeeee????? I’m not the ONLY one!!!!!!! Hugzzzzz!!!!
RavenSoul replied
So you like it? J/k Thank you so much this was a VERY emotional moment and I almost didnt work it for RB but I just kept coming back to it and decided if it pulled me like that perhaps it would show? I am so happy it did/does Lois you are such a good friend Thank you for your wonderful comments on my work! Big Hugs to you!
Lois Bryan
I’m nodding my head … I understand completely … when one of them pulls at us … then there’s a reason!!! You know … whether it’s joy or sorrow … the sharing of an emotion is a gift both ways. One, you the artist will feel the love and understanding of those who view your work … but also the viewers can say .. ahhhh … I’m not the only one who feels this way … she understands, too!!! And understanding … human being to human being … it one of the finest gifts we can share!!!
RavenSoul replied
Yes so True! But boy it can be hard to put yourself out there raw like this. Thank God this site is full of true artists and kind souls… Hugs

As an emotional person myself, I identify with you. But why do so many people hate to see emotion? Why do they think it is a weakness?
RavenSoul replied 29 days ago
Well Believe it or not I dont like to cry in front of people makes me feel vulnerable. I think that is why so many dont like it. They feel open and vulnerable. i am so happy you like my work!
