I'm a tortured artist but not making any art.

I feel robbed of my self, but it's my fault, letting people incrimintely take away who I was, believing love's potential. Wanting passion and spark to fill the emptiness death left me with.

I have fought and failed, I should be writing and drawing like a maniac, but I stay too low, too squashed.

There should be enough pain to produce endlessly, but I am blank.

Filled with an echo of who I still am, screaming into a void of who I was.

Pain and stress gained from the human experience can fuel our creative spark and help us to do and create great art in all different types of mediums. I know I have learned to fine tune and channel that agnst, aggression, hurt into creativity. It isn't easy. And nothing that comes from it ever is worth all the pain and suffering we experience. I am sorry for your loss and sacrifice. Don't give up hope. Not on yourself. You might not return to normal, it may just have to be a new normal for awhile. Use the pain to help you grow to be stronger without being jaded.

@Promises It is not about time. She has time. What she does not have is herself.

I wish you could make some art and pour your thoughts into it.

ScreamingFox · 41-45, F

@cherokeepatti I think I should

cherokeepatti · 61-69, F

@ScreamingFox You should, I think it will help.

I think in such circumstances you just have to make any art, even if it's uninspired or bad.

It ascends and descends. Sometimes there is a voice longing to be heard, other times no voice to be found. Squashed by pain and lulled to sleep, the mind becomes silent, lest it become overwhelmed and driven to madness.

We lie in slumber awaiting resurrection.

@emiliya I'm eagerly awaiting. Though someone mentioned to draw what I feel in this post, and I can definitely do that.

It's still in there. Just pick up the nearest pen or pencil and any piece of paper or envelope and just draw something that's in front of you. keep doing it and the dam will break...

@fun4us2b I've done drawings for my son hoping for a spark

fun4us2b · M

@ScreamingFox That's a great idea.... also maybe show him how....?

Stop thinking. Start doing.

emiliya · 22-25, F

There is an irony to your post.

ScreamingFox · 41-45, F

@emiliya I know, it's ripping me in two.
