You wouldn't believe how hard it was to find the good categorie to put this in. This is not exactly poetry, but that is what comes closer.
Sometimes when I don't feel really good, I feel a sort of emptiness in me which prevents me from doing anything constructive. So, generally, to exorcise it, I ask someone to give me a word, and then I go and write all the words that come through my mind following the first one. It may give some really strange results - a little like automatical writing.
That time I was feeling really bad - and the word I was given didn't help.
"Tromperie". Meaning "Deceit", in French.
I don't know why, but the only words that came through my mind were English words.
Tromperie - Poor - Vanishing - Missing - Finally - Trust - Deception - Petrified - Dissolution - Lie... I can't manage to find back all of them now. Can you ?
But writing them down was not enough. I had to give them life. This exercise usually takes me about one hour, yet that time it costed me three hours and a black marker. Poor thing.
I can't say I was feeling really better when I was done, but at least, I was glad I had finished the "drawing". Set aside that if I had done it with Photoshop it would have taken waaay less time and probably looked waaaay better, I think it's okay.
Now, this is quite what my mind looks like. A mess, filled with black, and colour linings when my feelings scream.
I have a lot of psychedelic stuff, maybe a little less dark than it though. I'll probably post it one day.
Anyway... Hope you'll like. Welcome to my words...

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces.
