Watchers

Musical Art Challenge and a little life-update (:

Journal Entry: Sun May 6, 2012, 12:20 PM


I got tagged to this art-meets-music-tag by my wonderful dA-friend ^namenotrequired, and as I was still planning to write an update journal, I though it was great timing on his side, and immediately headed over to browse dA and write a bit of a rant :dummy:

NaPoWriMo is behind us one week again, and I had a load of fun! I didn't imagine I would last as long as I did, and still find it a bit of a shame I only wrote one decent piece in my last week :blush:; but life got suddenly so busy and a tad disorganised, so I decided to let it go and savour the feeling I still had of writing a piece of poetry for three weeks in a row. Some came out so natural, if was blissfull after not having written much in the months before :floating: I still love to get comments from any of you if you haven't gotten round to reading them, I always love knowing what you all think, it has helped me grow so much over the past years :heart:

These were a few pieces that for me felt like truly coming home as I wrote them, like breathing and I'm glad I took the time to let the imagery and words come (: (Yes, indeed some shameless self-promotion :dummy:)

Melancholy Tears last night i dreamed
your hands travelled
down my spinal cord
and pressed the reset
button in the small of
my back,
'no more melancholy tears,'
you whispered,
cradling me to you
as my system slowly
shut-down to be
reborn again,
tenderly, you opened
me up, peeling off
layer upon layer
of my carefully preserved
skin-and-bone armour,

gingerly searching
until you found
the secret chambers
of my heart-drive,
one by one you removed
my unwanted memories
of failure and heartache,
replacing them with empty
bytes edged with the scent
of promise and happiness...

birds sing me back
to my waking hours,
and my dream dissolves
Sunday sunday's taste of freedom
lies sweetly upon my tongue,
mischievous like a pixie
it darts and dances
in and out of reach -

for i know,
when tomorrow comes,
this fantasy will be brief...
Sweet Lullabies dreams whisper
on the border between
night and day,
paper stars with curly edges,
containing wishes,
dangle on strings -
swaying back-and-forth
on hushed sweet lullabies,
i wander through
my technicolor fairytale,
singing along;

singing my own wishes
into the cloudless sky,
wings,
shaped by translucent stardust,
materialise behind my back;
effortlessly i glide
to the heavens above,
i dance with the stars,
sway through the mystery of constellations,
lost, for a while, in the indigo shades
of the dreamer's hour,
i retreat in the crescent moon's curve
lay my head back, smiling,
my eyes caressing the patched-up hills
and

Evening Sun twilight hour
dances upon the rooftop of our earth
wrapping it all in his golden embrace,
the sky blushes a pretty pink,
buildings shine in illumination,
trees curve their hands
for one last touch;
i, likewise,  drink in every minute -

for only tomorrow
the sun will kiss our skin
again.
Don't Be Afraid of the Dark voices whisper
in the dead of night;
calling your name,
calling you closer:

'come and play with us'

curiosity fills your being,
your fingers tremble
your mind is daring your feet
to move,

magic seems to live
in the depths
of your new home,

yet,
a sharp edge in that
beckoning voice makes
you falter in your step,

beautiful enchanting shadows
dance upon your walls,
but something sinister
moves just below the surface,

you crawl closer,
discovery dares you near;
under the sheets
into their world,

into their trap -

haunted eyes in grey deathly faces
burn right through your very soul,
terror twists your young heart;
claw


And for the rest am I feeling rather happy these last past months, illustrating a lot has brought me in a very happy zen-state of mind, so you can all expect a lot of illustration work to see the light on dA in the coming weeks; and on that note I want to extend a personal note to all of you watchers - old and new -, for being so incredibly encouraging with the lovely comments and :+fav:'s, it is truly an extra positive boost to keep going strong - so thank you :hug:

So, ending this little update with the feature-tag, I hope you'll enjoy the pieces I have chosen!

The only acceptable meme!

1. Set your favorite music playlist on random.
2. Pick art about what you're listening to, what emotions you feel.
{I felt like browsing some photography, so that explains why that's the only art-form here :heart:)
3. Pick only while song is playing.
4. Feature in a journal!
5. Tag 5 people once done to do the same.
{I tag ~Fineliners, ~Sammur-amat, *FuzzyHoser, ~gogocherryrose and *Itachilova101 if they feel like doing it :hug: And everyone else that thinks this looks like fun!}
