this was just a simple charcoal sketch of a sad angel at first, then I guess my feelings kinda took hold later when I was playing with this in corel. I think that it came out okay. i think that i like this one more and more. like how it turned out.

I tried to kill the pain
but only brought more (So much more)
I lay dying
and I’m pouring crimson regret and betrayal
I’m dying, praying, bleeding and screaming
am I too lost to be saved
am I too lost?

do you remember me
lost for so long
will you be on the other side
or will you forget me
I’m dying, praying, bleeding and screaming

I want to die!!!

my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation
my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation

my wounds cry for the grave
my soul cries for deliverance
will I be denied Christ
tourniquet
my suicide

*This is a good chunk of an Evanescence song* I think that it fit in with this picture quite well.

I think i’ll take that cup of tea. this picture reminds me of a song by System of a Down- Chop suey also known as When Angels deserve to die.

you like evenescance alot, right - that makes two of us!!! - this is so emotive, very stark and blunt...in a good way!!! 1

:-) Lydia stephanie Barker replies: "you are so very kind. not many that have this kind of kindness. i really do thank you for your remarks and care.
i am very much an evanescence fan. i find so many of there songs hit a personal cord with me. and amy lee’s voice is enchanting. she can truly take the words and feelings from the songs and weave the very emotion into your soul. you can more than feel what she sings. yea, at times it can bring you back to a not so nice place, but i feel like i (at times) need that to help me to remember why it is so important that i stay together for my kids. i’m not sure if i made much sense or not. sorry if i haven’t.

:-) Lydia stephanie Barker replies: "i can’t tell you how i really appreciate your comment. i agree with you on the song too...it’s nice tohear kind comments such as yours on something that means so much to me. this picture came from so may tears. "

Loving the evanescence song; that is one of my favourites.

:-) Lydia stephanie Barker replies: "that song means something to me. at first she was just a graphite drawing, but i had been wanting to play with charcoal a bit more. i appreciate your kind remarks1 stop by when ever you would like. have a wonderful day!"
