Morning sunshine I thought
was my salvation only became
a taste that you hinted was
no more.
OH so recognizable when
your breath smells of passion
flowers in your hair and me
the thief who stole tomorrow.
Nothing changes, things just look different because I have stuffed so deeply that I hardly notice I no longer know who I am.

To me, your picture is reminiscent of a frilled neck lizard, I can almost hear it emitting a deafening and angry snarl. It’s frill intimidatingly on show in an act of defiance and as a warning for those who come too close.
It reminds me of the Rorschach test, where numerous people looking at the exact same thing will interpret different meanings.
Not knowing who you are is familiar, I’ve been there as well. It opens a chance not for rediscovery but a clean slate to build who you are based on what motivates you. A second chance to define yourself and where you fit. A new start for yourself.
A quote comes to mind from Alice “I’m afraid I can’t explain myself, sir. Because I am not myself, you see?”
Thank you for the compliment. I love when people see things in my abstracts. It is liberating sometimes to just lose who I am. Look at myself in the mirror and not know who is looking back. We are all stuck in these meatsacks daily. They ache, they get tired. They break down. But to start fresh, to just flush all the bullshit and start over? That is a gift I so dearly need in my life lately. It can’t happen like it used to, with me walking away and starting some place new where absolutely no one knows me, so it has to happen in another way. I need to peel the layer of my soul away and allow them to rot in the back yard with the leaves and dead twig of fall. Just allow it to fall away. I hope what I find will allow me to walk forward.
To me it looks a lot like a flower, probably partially due to how I relate flowers to you and pre much anything you do :/
@ shatterediris. Yeah, I get the flower resemblance, colours are tell tale. With the name Hazy Day *Sunflower* it’s obvious where the passion (and also talent) lies and my interpretation is more a result of me letting the creative part of my brain run away.
yeah I do see where you are coming from, but to me it looks more like a duck if I interpret it as not a flower….
The colors and softness of the painting are relaxing. I’m afraid that isn’t a very in-depth observation, but it is a good thing.
It’s definitely been a little while since you were here, Hazy. I don’t know what to say. I suppose on a forum like this, “it’s good to see you again” isn’t very appropriate. But I can say that I did miss your paintings and your poems. And you, most importantly.
I hope this change that you’re coming up on is for the better. Although, better or not, sometimes change itself is just enough. Festering in one still spot is never good. Sometimes any change is better than stagnation.
yay Hazy I’m happy to see you still around ^_^ I do hope that you are doing well ^_^
The painting is very nice, I quite like the choice of colors and I like the brush strokes a lot…. Now I’m wishing that my brush strokes could come close to looking like that 😀 (if brush stroke is the right word for what I’m trying to describe) ^_^
This painting is really nice to look at.
It’s nice and colorful.
Also, I really like your username.
Probably because sunflowers are my favorite…
@ Fish, “it’s good to see you again” equates more to I’ve missed seeing you around, then It’s good seeing you back on a suicide site. Anyways, when people are happy to see/hear from someone on here, it’s usually the former. Am I right? Btw, it’s been a while, and it’s good to see you again ;P. My email’s still the same if you ever wanna chat.
@HDS, it’s been so long, mama bear. Always love your paintings, albeit I should probably make an attempt to listen to the music that accompanies said pictures. idk why but I haven’t made much effort to listen to much of the music that pops up on this site… Anyways, you know how I feel about you, hun. Love you lots, as always, and email me anytime. My email hasn’t changed.
Love,
Trey, the mindless gamer
