All things go

So,  another relationship has ended.

I decided to simply walk away from this relationship. It wasn't my idea, but I went with it. Though painful, it turned out to be best. We were at the point where there were a lot of words (and arguments) and nothing being heard. Words were useless.

We were trying to be "friends" but friends by her definition. I just wanted us to be anything but not. I realized that as long as she harbored any idea of us being together romantically, we couldn't be true friends. And admittedly, I had trouble quieting my own heart and mind, hesitant to let someone so special slip away. Nevertheless, things weren't lining up.

I knew where things were going from the beginning, it's my own fault for letting it go on for as long as it did without ever letting either person get a chance to come up for air. But the faults I saw in her and in myself are not important. What's important is that we were doing each other harm. After all the attempts to talk, "to bleed, and fuck, and fight", I found it was best to do what works best in a lot of situations, just walk away. To let the dust finally settle and wipe it from our eyes.

Do I wish I could still be there for her, be friends? Yes, but not at the expense of either of our happiness. Will I think of her? Always. I know myself and I know that I will always think of her on occasion and wonder how she is. I will always love her for love is timeless and its the people who change, not love.

Love is,
Konstant <|3

Women need the art, poetry, music, and creative safe spaces more than the men. #period
I turn on my car to find two lights on the dash. On the right, the check engine light and on the left, the empty gas tank light. As I roll over the bumps in my apartment complex, the gas light dims and disappears for a few seconds. It lets me know that there's still a bit sloshing around in there. I open my g-mail to find an e-mail from my ex. The air around me began to fizzle and my heart paused as I read. It lets me know that there's still a bit sloshing around in there. <|3

Live Painting III

Here is my third live painting. What is interesting about this instance is that the girl painted here didn't appear until the end of the painting. I had painted the girl very quickly at home (it's not very clean) and then applied a new medium I've discovered that allows you to essentially erase paint. So, I painted the entire piece in one color so the figure couldn't be seen underneath. Then I let it dry and packed it up in my car for the show. At the show, I proceeded to paint the background in several layers. I was even allowed to spray paint a bit. And then half way through, I began to expose the painting underneath. People were pretty amazed at my "performance" and kept questioning me about what I described as a "magic trick". Only one person knew what I had done. :) Anyway, I think I will reclaim this idea. That is of the girl as a guitar. <|3
