you gave me hope
then took away everything
you quenched my thirst
then drained my soul empty
stumbling
crawling
lying very still
my eyes see nothing
my skin yearns to feel
no words will cry
though tears may fall
for I will suffer in silence
and nothing more
~A.K~
She is very beautiful, but the words make me so sad for her...I hope they are not words from your heart...
ReplyDeletehugs and a smile
Amalia this is just lovely.
ReplyDeleteHmn, what do you do with someone who does this? Tell them to go to hell, you don't need them. Don't get too comfortable with suffering, honey. Move on and find another. That's what I'll do. Nothing can even drag your art down. Look at this beautiful illustration!
ReplyDeleteOh so sweet! is what I think when I see your art. Beautiful. She has life to me, and I'm sure she lives as part of you. You could walk on water too :)
ReplyDeletehi teh, lg nyobain wifi di henpon, coooool. Who gave u hope? Aku tau mantan pacar kamu yg waktu itu kamu tunjukin fotonya kaaann. Trus kamu patah hati gara-gara dia gay. Emang tuh kalung udh dijampe-jampe ya ama kamu???? Mudah-mudahan nih komen berhasil lewat henpon. Awas kalo di delete. Daaaaah!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, Amalia, I would like to think this is not happening to you, but if it is - here're my words of consolation... A day will come, when someone else will "give you a new hope" and will caress your wounded heart. This often happens in life, you know!:))
ReplyDeleteWhat about the poem - I like it, I've passed through such feelings when I was young, but now everything's just a faded memory...
I like the movement of the water. It's the accent in your drawing for me and it strenghtens the condition of inner suffering and sinking in the pain. The girl is looking without seeing. But she's not alone... The hug of these bare trees is much more stronger than if they were in leaves and colours!xxx
Beautiful, so beautiful. I love the gentleness of it. You're inspired :) x
ReplyDeleteSoOOOOOOOOOOOO Beautiful! This is magnificent! Illustration is so fabulous and the words just go so perfectly with the piece. I tell you brilliant you are! BRILLIANT!
ReplyDeleteBoth art and poetry are sublime.
ReplyDeleteDearest I wish you a beautiful day! Take care my dearest Ulan!
ReplyDeleteLovely...in a very gentle way.
ReplyDeleteMy dearest friends, thank you for taking the time to drop a few lines... I'm always so excited to read your thoughts here.
ReplyDeleteLike all of my work, this one is very personal. It's wonderful to see the different interpretations coming from wonderful artists such as you! (^-^) oxx
Amalia,
ReplyDeleteShe is beautiful - the words are touching,heartbeaking, and full of emotion.
very nice piece. -Heather
Gorgeous, I'm enchanted!
ReplyDeleteMMMMMMM ... penso che anche la poesia mi rispecchi in qualche modo ... molto bella e profonda... toccante ...come sempre bravissima...
ReplyDeleteAmelia, I feel the pure emotion. Such a beautiful illustration! From tears comes amazing creativity. Very lovely my dear friend.
ReplyDeletea tree without leaves is only a sleeping tree.
ReplyDeleteSprinkle trees that surround you with the water that you caress and new leaves will grow in your life.
Peace, Sister Tree :)
Beautifully done, Amalia *:) The words and the illustration are quite moving.
ReplyDeleteThere is a haunting quality to your work both writing and poetry. I hope you can find a way to resolve the suffering. Sending you peace and love, Amalia!! <3
ReplyDeleteoops i meant to say both illustration and poetry...
ReplyDeletegasp... this piece is tremendous amalia. i would love to know more about the story behind it - such beauty within sadness...
ReplyDeleteAmalia, your art is so beautiful. The people you paint are enchanting
ReplyDeleteYou are all amazingly kind to me, did you know that? Hugs to you!! (^-^)
ReplyDeleteOh sweet Amalia - you have enchanted me again with this wondrous beauty. Her eyes tell her soul..there is hope, and though she will suffer, it is not forever. I know it! (stomp, stomp!) You are so inspiring to me. I worried about you and our dear witch as I know there were three earthquakes..I hope you were not affected, nor family or friends. I send you big hugs from the states and thank you for your kind visits - you are just a sweet, sweet gem and so amazingly talented. Thank you for sharing your world with us!
ReplyDeleteHllo darling, how are you today? I am trying to run around like a crazy loon here but hopefully after today, it will be breezy and steady, although I will be background-hosting a dozen teenagers for a pool party! Tsup!
ReplyDeleteHoney, you have an open invitation to all of my parties. But this one, I am just the cook. Hahahah! I am ordering pizza, of course. Hahahah!

ReplyDeleteHello Amalia, well I go away for a while and then come back to your beautiful work and find there is an epiphanical collection of wonderful images that have blossomed. (Do you like the word 'epiphanica'?)
ReplyDeleteBut seriously, there is so much raw energy in your recentwork. It's very beautiful - but with an edge.
Have you read A Farewell to Arms ...." In the bed of the river there were pebbles and
boulders, dry and white in the sun, and the water was clear and swiftly moving and blue
in the channels. Troops went by the house and down the road and the dust they raised
powdered the leaves of the trees. The trunks of the trees too were dusty and the leaves
fell early that year and we saw the troops marching along the road and the dust rising
and leaves, stirred by the breeze, falling and the soldiers marching and afterward the
road bare and white except for the leaves."
Your trees and poem and image remind me of this (sad and beautiful), though they have no leaves
see you!
ayo ayo jalannya jgn mundur ayo ayo
ReplyDeleteAha. I knew something felt different the minute I came here, and so it appeared that we have had the pleasure of Monsieur Finnie's presence. And with a souvenir too! 'Epiphanica'? Now, I know you well enough not to be surprised at your eager interest when it come to the matter of ***** Hahaha! Yes, the word does sound beautiful though, doesn't it? :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the reminder of E.H's wonderful words, he was a brilliant, brilliant man. Would you believe me if I told you I dreamed this image? Because I did... :)
It's good to see you here again, my good friend! Thank you for your kind words... :)
Hey! It's good to have dreams. I once dreamt that I was short and old - I am still waiting to wake up!
ReplyDeleteBut seriously, I once dreamt of two trees, each had an intertwined snake, wrapped around its trunk. The trees were in a beautiful tropical forest, and, in the distance, a lovely turquoise bay.
When I woke up, I painted my dream. Unlike yours, my painting was terrible, yet when I look at the painting, I remember the dream.
I don't know what it meant though. Possibly that beauty always comes with a 'sting'.
What?? I thought you said you were tall and handsome!! Well, there goes the friendship. Hahahaha!! Just kidding! :D :D
ReplyDeleteYou know, that dream sounds enchanting. The snakes seem to emphasize on reality, don't they? Nothing is perfect I suppose, even beauty. But imagine if everything is, perfect, wouldn't you get bored??? Sometimes the 'sting' is what people look for, no? (^-^)
the heart and spirit of a lover is what I hear in your words... and your art is sublime~
ReplyDeleteyah ilah x(
ReplyDeletetelat.
Oh, Amalia, Amalia! I've been away too long! There is no limit to the beauty of your women. She is poetic, my dear. Her eyes have that faraway look as she mindlessly causes a ripple. And the trees reach to console her. Oh my goodness, this is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteBritish pricks? Isn't that what BP stands for?
This is so tranquil and peaceful, I just love your poems you write along side your pictures too, it puts a whole new feel and perspective into it! Amazing work yet again
ReplyDeleteI think this is going to be my favourite.
ReplyDeleteWow this is quite beautiful! So well done. I want to Thank you so much for your wonderful kind words and taking the time to to stop by my blog to say it. :D
