01.
She was an artist, she dipped her brushes into thick oils and argued with watercolors, finding them to run away too often from where she wanted them to stay, she prefered the paint that let her be more in control of the world she created.
02.
We met in math and she was drawing shadows on her papers and I was doodling comics, I was creating offbeat stars. She was older, skipped too many classes, hated math, loved to dangle cigarettes out of her mouth even though she was barely 17.
03.
She believed in Persephone, in dreams as a reality. She believed in blaming her problems on the Gods and Goddesses she read about, she conjured them up in her palms and tosses them at me. My eyelashes fluttered; She dared me to cry.
04.
We never spoke of it, our quiet mouths said enough. My eyes were distant. One morning I awoke and realized she was a lie, in the form of a girl. She was
lying. I had wings, I could get away.
05.
“Let me watch you draw,” they would beg her,
and she would be crimson cheeked, shading in a palm tree, or a beautiful woman's calf. And I would turn the other way, and write about my silence, and why. Why no one ever asked to watch me write
ever asked to watch me at all.

Maybe, even though the writer doesn't get asked to be watched as he/she writes, people will ask for their writtings to be head, and to be read aloud?
The way I can desrcibe this peice is like taking a wonderful sip of ice cool water. Feeling refreshed and pure, yet slightly chilled. Also calming and thoughful. ><
I really like this because it makes me feel like it'd give writer's more, and be on the same level with art for the people who fasinate over paintings and such and find words 'meh'. I wanna get a person to write out a beautiful descriptive paragraph/story of a painting, and have it read to someone. Then show them the painting they were describing, and point out that you can paint with words too...!
You've gotten me into a thinking mood Tak-Jak. confused *ponder*
I love both writting and drawing. Sometimes people will ask to watch me draw, or to look at my doodles. But people have also asked me to let them read my short stories, etc..
In some ways they're the same, and have diffrent problems. In Art the strokes, the lines, the turns are like the words for writting. They're both difficult to to form.
To get the drawing you want onto the peice of paper, you usualy have to picture it or see it with your eyes, and you have to form it onto the paper.
With writting, when you picture/see a person, place, object, you have to describe it, set it into the readers mind with words, but you also have to create it onto paper too, using words though....
Artist and writers both create pictures. In my opinion they're both hard to do. Another thing in common, is that they're ways to express one's self and to go into your own worlds.
