Soul Ache

This picture of a girl "CUTTING" has been stuck in my head for a while. I've never "CUT" but I have empathy for the young ones out there that do. This is my take on how they see/feel. The Soul Aches How to relieve pain? When sutures don't work and words can't explain Shallow cut releases pressure A perceived control valve A deceived sleight of hand A hidden gash is a treasure A girl takes a knife and cuts herself. For a few moments, she's in control,...in control of her pain. She decides how much how long, and for a few moments the pain on the inside feels less. This is my perception of what "CUTTING" is. (In this sweet sadness) (This glorious madness) (Brings me to my knees) Sarah McLachlan, "Angel" This is a little dark and to be honest I don't expect to many respones. But sometimes you just gotta express yourself............ P.S. this piece is unfinished

This is a striking image. Maybe arresting is a better word. It is a very successful piece of work.
