These Sheets
“These sheets, so cold now, were so warm last night …..........before you left.”
This is a Self-Portrait.
The story was written last year.
Quite often, i would find myself bringing home a woman, only to help me feel better about the man i am.
But, in the morning, I was always left alone….............. and then all of a sudden, as if they were just waiting outside my bedroom door, my insecurities would return.
It’s been a long time since then and i have come along way since those days. But the sadness sometimes returns, to remind me – of my insecurities.
- Can i make a special mention to two of my favourite artists on RedBubble.
- Tony Ryan, who has helped me in so many more ways than just helping me with my art.
and
-Aida Julia, who has inspired and directed me towards the Self-Portrait style of shooting!
