Description You'll never touch - these things that I hold
The skin of my emotions lies beneath my own
You'll never feel the heat of this soul
My fever burns me deeper than I've ever shown - to you

You'll say, Don't fear your dreams, it's easier than it seems
You'll say you'd never let me fall from hopes so high
But never is a promise and you can't afford to lie

You'll never live this life that I live
I'll never live the life that wakes me in the night
You'll never hear the message I give
You'll say it looks as though I might give up this fight

-Fiona Apple

I love it.. It makes a difference that you can't see the eyes but when I think of it, it probably would still look great.
I love the whole color feel

Was just listening to Never Is A Promise when I stumbled across this picture.
And it's just as beautiful as the song.

It reminds me of a short poem in the book "The Last Unicorn" ...
"I am a King's daughter, and I grow old within
The prison of my person, the shackles of my skin..."

I really love the green tones in this - it gives a warmth, then juxtaposed by the stark whiteness of the skin and the colour in the lips, but also a sense of rejection. I really liket he way you are clenching your hands to your chest, it seems, in an effort to comfort yourself and how the eyes aren't visible, but such emotion is conveyed.

n1nj4zero [2004-08-08 00:54:59 +0000 UTC]

I like this pic a lot, actually. It's very antagonistic. Showing someone what they cannot have is a painful and irritating thing to do to someone that yearns and wishes to be with you. It's been done by many. Even me.
Not only is it a great shot, but it also seems to express a deep urge we all have to be...well, assholes-but look good being one, at the same time.
This is very cool, and I love it. Thank you for increasing my Favorite List by one more. Hats off to thee.
