i am strong
but filled with weakness
i am dead
but i still breath
i am intelligent
but not always smart
i am hidden
but i’m in plain view
i am tough
but not invincible
i am empty
but filled with pain
i am alive
but i don’t always live
i am sick
but no one knows
i am hurting
but you cannot see it
i am fragile
but not easily broken
i am tired






brilliant use of opposites. can feel the vulnerability. a perfect expression of a bipolar experience. i, also, love your photo and the color. so alive.
Thank you! I try to write just what I feel…and I love taking photographs!
my friend is encouraging me to get back into doing photogaphy to use with my blog posts and just for the enjoyment. she is also a photographer, a writer, poet and artist. i love to write but i gave up many other creative expression to do it but my blog made me realize i miss all the things i use to do. photography is one of them. i do video but that is not the same thing. i can get clips off of the video but i want to experiement with all sorts of shots. i love you blog. you really open up. it is good for you. i found that out doing it on my blog when the feelings move me to.
You really should take photos for your blog. I love it when I have a personal pic that goes with something I have written. Thanks for the compliment, too.
This is beautiful, Rainey.
Thank you.
