WOW! Art AND Poems!

[Beefydork]

I will be posting my own art work here, some will be old and I'll tell you which ones they are. Also, if you would like to read some of my poems I write when I'm not my best or just brainstorming, you can here! After them I'll probably give an explanation on when I wrote them, why and how I feel about it.

It's BIG! I don't know how to resize

Let's start with this sketch of an older Connie from SU. This was after a huge art slump and I just had to draw something. That's why it's so sloppy and I dig the whole 'No sketch, just color' look.

Now a poem, the name of it is Silence

I stare at my hands,
Quiet, shaken like a lost child
My thoughts wondering from here and there,
But always ending with the simple word, Why?

When you ask me how I feel,
I'm shocked, not only because I didn't think you'd care
But because it's the only question that I had no response to,
Still in silence, I strained a smile

Of course this was a lie,
I was furious and I had so much to yell
I didn't want to seem problematic or foolish,
I didn't want this situation to get out of hand and become augmented

Oh if I knew what this was doing to me,
Keeping all of my emotions bottled up only harmed me
I cried and screamed to myself, in my own sanctuary
But still in the public, all I did was sit in
Silence

Little background on the poem, I made it in my dark room on a cold night. My TV was off and I didn't have my phone powered on. Curled up in my blanket I didn't feel like doing anything but crying and sleeping. But I suddenly wanted to make a poem, and this is what came up. After the poem I felt better and got something to eat after hours of eating nothing.

"False Tranquility"
Peace in appearance but not in the mind,
The struggle to keep it in is torture;
And someday when my mind is blank I'll find,
Finally I can get rid of this vulture.

Dangerous it may be but I can't plead,
For it would only cause hectic corruption;
Because of this I would much rather bleed,
Only this will cause major destruction.

I have spoken to many but none helped,
Apologies are made for me being so clinical;
This must be childish I must be a whelp,
The whispers they're calling me cynical.

"I'm sorry. " I weep the Niagara Falls,
I stumble and weep in front of their eyeballs.

"False Tranquility" Was a sonnet I had to write for my freshman English class (Which was only last year, I'm going onto my Sophomore year.) I'm not high on including rhymes in my poems, usually just leaving it free. But, this was really nice, maybe even refreshing. The thing that did get me was the 10 syllables each line and only having 14 lines. Still, I'm proud of it and so was my teacher. I may even try to do another someday.

Another huge art piece

This drawing is with an OC that I still draw. It's an older drawing, older then the Connie sketch I posted earlier. I remember not liking but then becoming proud of it, it's weird. I'm just laughing at the hairline because it just slopes down lol.
