Sleep don't visit, so I choke on sun And the days blur into one And the backs of my eyes hum with things I've never done
Sheets are swaying from an old clothesline Like a row of captured ghosts over old dead grass Was never much but we made the most Welcome home
Ships are launching from my chest Some have names but most do not If you find one, please let me know what piece I've lost
Heal the scars from off my back I don't need them anymore You can throw them out or keep them in your mason jars I've come home
All my nightmares escaped my head Bar the door, please don't let them in You were never supposed to leave Now my head's splitting at the seams And I don't know if I can
Here, beneath my lungs, I feel your thumbs press into my skin again stupid extra thing
So this took a while, I'm very satisfied with it though! I did change the context of the original image which was much more... demanding (it was "Get up") but I didn't want to make that sort of image. So I changed the context and used the cooler side of my pallet. Context change meant that it probably also didn't fit the original idea Allah had for her A&D AU, but w/e, as I was working on it it became my Seal Beach AU in my head and idgaf.
Also... that fucking SHEET!!! AAAHHHHG!!!! /pulls at hair It went through no less then three variations of the part that's propped up by Malik's knee. Omfg it drove me up a wall aaaaahggg!!!
I'd love it sooo much
Fuck yeah I know right? I'm such a lazy asshole and never color anything ever.
