http://vasqi.deviantart.com/ I'm a artist painting in oil. I also write introspective poetry.
inspiration: "Pain. And lots of it." Misery loves company . . . but generally, company does not love misery back. I mean, when a person is suffering...

Birds fall. Like leaves. From the sky. Broken promises. Still held on to. From days gone by. Stillness squeezes into. An old room. Now emptied of life. Childhood wonders. It's joys. And strife.
Portals to the soul They call them But through these same Twain Thresholds saw them Looking back And judging me.
Pour in. Pour in. Pour in. Displace and replace. Like storm clouds into a peaceful sky. A shout into a quiet room. A tragedy into a dull day. Or common sense into an otherwise Republican mind.

I am free Free to look and act how I want to And I want to look and act how I feel And that's something that changes All the time.
There's dumbness here Flowing Dumbing Flowing like the kitten hair That Tickles in my ear And there's numbness here Calling Running Chasing after Fireflies Still swimming through the air..
I still remember the first time I saw you. Before I knew enough to be looking for you. I remember you walking into the classroom with your friend. And wondering what you both were like.
