Description No, I don't suppost cutting. But yes, at one time in my life I was suicidal. So this is probably the most personal deviation I have ever submitted. Um ya....

EVANESCENCE LYRICS

"Tourniquet"

i tried to kill the pain
but only brought more
i lay dying
and i'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal
i'm dying, praying, bleeding and screaming
am i too lost to be saved
am i too lost?

my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation
my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation

do you remember me
lost for so long
will you be on the other side
or will you forget me
i'm dying, praying, bleeding and screaming
am i too lost to be saved
am i too lost?

my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation
my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation

i want to die!!!

my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation
my God my tourniquet
return to me salvation

my wounds cry for the grave
my soul cries for deliverance
will i be denied Christ
tourniquet
my suicide

EDIT:
Yikes! I forgot to credit the photographers.
All the floral, stone, and the hand came from [link] this was a really nice gallery. All stock photo's and there are over 300 deviations.

The knife, part of the blood, and the drain came from this photo. [link]

And finally the warehouse and the girl can be found on sxc.hu - a stock photo website.

I think this is also one of your more powerful pieces here in this gallery. I feel sort of bad I didn't choose a different one since I'm sure others are much more lonely then this work (notes all the comments) but this still deservers a mark for good composition and theme!

The trees and the hand are the most catching part at first then I started to wonder about the little dustdevil thing above the hand and the room. All in all it doesn't come off just as suicide to me but emotional abandonment. Prehaps it's becuase since my mother died the hills and forests (with trees like that) have become a symbol of her life leaving and my emotional abandonment. I dont' know. Either way it was patched up together well... in photoshop prehaps?

Photoshop indeed.

There were a lot of emotions going into this peice... some I didn't even realize till I looked over the images I had chosen and asked myself "why?" I sort of lost myself when I did this piece, and I'm not sure I could ever recollect all the thoughts that I scattered into it.

I'm glad to know you have closed that dark chapter in your life. Pictures are known to tell a thousand words, but your beautiful pic tells a whole story. Really great job! You're great. Keep inspiring others with your powerful message because it sure inspired me.

It's kind of hard when the art is so personal but it makes for a great end. Thank you for adding it to your favorites ^_^

IΒ΄m glad this is personal but doesnΒ΄t refer to you at this time
I had my suicidal thoughts too.....I guess itΒ΄s part of evolution
And... now, the deviation, it is great!

I think mostly everyone has to go to through that thought to some degree. I think when you look back on such things it makes life more valuable because it is somthing you decided to keep - that was worth having.

Thanks for your input ^_^ you coments always mean so much to me.
