"this dream isn't feeling sweet

we're reeling through the midnight streets

and I've never felt more alone

it feels so scary getting old"

Felt cute, might delete later.

Turns out it doesn't take a lot to turn an existential bathroom selfie into a drawing.

He who binds to himself a Joy

Does the wingéd life destroy;

But he who kisses the Joy as it flies

Lives in Eternity's sunrise.

work in progress

This drawing is about being so damn anxious and sensitive that you cannot do anything beyond simply existing in oversaturated world that surrounds you. Can't wait to finish it, it got me out of an uncreative rut and I love it so much.
