May 23, 2012

I've decided to start writing. If I don't, I might explode into silver clouds of toxic memories, and be forced to hurt myself in order to bring back reality. The reality of the present moment; that I'm alive, and every breath is cool on the intake and invisible on the way out. That the second hand doesn't stop for whimpering children who want to change the past. I am a fragment of the earth, I am needed. Every person I interact with is affected by me, good or bad. My love is fleeting, a three month relationship of glances and idle touches. And there's nothing wrong with that. Who says that isn't love? I seek a soul mate, a partner in crime th

Love Letter by YellowPaperclip, literature

Literature

Love Letter

Open your mouth to invite me in. (You could never say anything bad about me) Play with my muscles, run your fingers over the smoothness of my ribs. (My body is a gift for your patience) I'm still scared, still shaking as lips linger. (If you could just hold me a little tighter) And I know my poetry can never compare to yours. (It's embarassing to even try) You just need to understand that my tongue gets tangled with the butterflies in my stomach, (You have such an effect on me) And it gets hard to swallow what I'm drinking in. (Reality can be exceptionally hard to understand) So the words I can't say come out on the back of math n

I Can't Remember

I remember being whole. I was standing on a cliff. I don't remember jumping. But I suddenly was so incredibly COLD

Let It Burn by YellowPaperclip, literature

Literature

Let It Burn

Grab my heart and dig it out from my inner cage, Brand it with your kiss, And shove it back in. Every beat is so strong, And yet I cry out in pain. That kiss was never meant for me, To call that love would be vain. With you, your care was bitter, not sweet, I cried for your attention, but all I ever saw was the back of your head. I was isolated from ever seeing emotion in your eyes, Or from feeling tenderness glide from your fingertips. With you, I was alone. But with her, it was different. Because she looked at my bruises and self hate, and saw me for what I had become, A lost girl begging for the worthiness of her man. A ch

The Liar by YellowPaperclip, literature

Literature

The Liar

Slipping out from under your lips, gravity convulses and darkens on the other. Like a spell of enchanting magic made from cheap sparks and stolen talent, it captivates the naïve, but professionals shake their heads in disgust. Some say there's no point in entertaining a poor audience, but the attention attracts you to the limelight, and so you glow like a pool of raw oil. Every word you exhale pierces their life, but the wealthy were always greedy. Fortune rains down from your sky, and you dance in the blood of the falling. But when the day the critics shred your act word for fucking word, it's only you and that limelight, shining oh-so

Chocolate and Heroin by YellowPaperclip, literature

Literature

Chocolate and Heroin

Every breath I take seems to be choking me. It's like in this life, there's only so much air we can inhale, only so much we can soak in before we have our fill. Filling ourselves to the brim with chocolate and heroin as we flail confused and wandering in this pathetic excuse of a controlled and harmonious society. Adults only see us for what they hope for us to be, And not how we look like right now. Those uninterested gazes glaze over what we're trying to become. Try speaking to the sky of all your problems, and at least the clouds will move in response. Always telling us that we're wrong. That we're too young to understand. That

The Show Must Go On by YellowPaperclip, literature

Literature

The Show Must Go On

The script runs through my head, Every line, Every word, Perfectly placed to capture the audience in a moment of complete awe. To direct them away from their reality, And into ours. You and I, Are actually quite different. You, Tough shell for protection of outer forces, Soft interior to hold those precious to you. And I, Strengthened by sweet words of encouragement, But secretly knocked down by the harsh ones. Different characters, Odd perspectives of the same world. Destiny seems to sing out and tie us together. As the script commands. As the audience foresees. But am I really the one for you? To make an us would mean s

The Addiction by YellowPaperclip, literature

Maybe... by YellowPaperclip, literature

Literature

Maybe...

Maybe if I curl up real tight, I can disappear. Just like she wants me to. Maybe if I lay on the floor and stay awake, I won't have to cry myself to sleep. Maybe if I lie, I won't have to dissapoint her with the truth. Maybe I can starve from my lack of confidence by morning.. Maybe my pain will one day become so intense that I'll become numb.. Maybe if I quit now, she won't get angry because I didn't win.

My Bio

There's two things I want to try and express in my photos: a story, and a definite expression. I like looking at a piece of art and finding mself imagining how the subject got into the situation they're in, as seen in the piece. I think it really connects a person to the artwork, making them think, and possibly, aquire inspiration.

Devious Journal Entry

0 min read

Alrightso, I know I said I'd do more photos, and believe me, I'm DYING to do so! However, my camera is dead and I left my charger at my house, so it'll be at least another two weeks before another photo comes out. Sorry about the wait!

Project 365: DONE.

0 min read

I finally, FINALLY completed my Project 365. This really made me grow as a photographer: it made me see simplicity as art, and even the smallest of things gave me huge ideas. I really learned about the settings on my camera. The thing I'm really happy about is that I met and talked to different artists, whether on DA or around my town. All of you guys on DA have been SO incredibly supportive of me, my artwork, and the concept of my art. I know that some of them have been controversial in their concept, and people were either unhappy or disgusted, or thought of it as engaging and thoughtful about what's happening in the world. Regardless of
