I am playing with an art journal and today was soft pastels. While I was trying to come up with a word for my AlphaPoem, I decided to use the word from a song that is a forever earworm for me. The line that continues to repeat is "Your love is like a waterfall, waterfall -- falling fast and free" I love the image in my head when I hear those words. I decided to make the writing not mimic the that image but the opposite. One not of comfort but longing. I hope you enjoy "WATERFALL"
First the image I created in my Art Journal, underneath is the written poem.
Watching the light dance slowly across the sky
Apart from you my days flitter away
Thoughts drift away on clouds
Empty days, lonely nights
Rushing tears EXPLODE unexpectedly
Falling, tumbling as I close my eyes
Alone I dream of you
Longing for your voice, your touch, your scent
Loving you from too far away
Thanks for checking it out!

I love this!! I've tried keeping an art journal. It's mostly comic clippings from the newspaper or my name written in different fonts.
