My love of art, I think it stemmed from my love for you.

You were a hurricane that shook my very existence on this planet, and for that I am thankful.

I am a concoction of swirling thoughts and feelings that I thought no one would and could never know or understand. 

You always said I said spent too much time thinking; I think these thoughts will be my inevitable end one day.

However, you understood, you knew. You understood the thoughts and feelings I couldn't even know myself. 

Sometimes I think you knew me better than I knew myself.


Then the world ripped us apart.


Art, the only medium I know to express myself.

Every time I create, I think of you. No one may ever understand these thoughts again, but everyday I try to make them understand.

I create. These abstract feelings, I force them into something physical I can hold on to.

Feelings so real and raw and completely unexplainable.

I want someone to know and understand me like you did.

Not to judge me, but to understand.

And with every word I write, every stroke of the brush, every picture, film, music, I do it because of you.

You showed me what it was like to love, to let someone else in.

When they ripped you from my arms, I died.

And now all I want is for someone to understand me like you did.

I long for that companionship you gave me.


And so I write this hoping someone will understand. Understand why my need for expression is so strong.
