Description
I would have uploaded this to the writer's gallery but I got a little thrown at the "the size of the art image is 300 x 300 pixels" line, seeing as this is quite over that. So, I decided to upload it to good ol' terragen/mood/atmosphere gallery. Now, the two or three brushes I used in this are not Mine. However, the poem is. No, I'm not having a bout with depression. I just found this in a folder on My hard drive and it, combined with "Ascension/Nature Boy" from the Moulin Rouge soundtrack gave Me the idea to make a graphic and plop it in it.
For those who can't make out the text, it reads:
The sun sets,
As it has set for an eternity ever so,
Sinking behind mountains worn and tore with the age of the world,
Only to rise and witness another day of this world's woes.
To say the sun's rays are weeping tears that are shed in pity for this world,
As it watches helplessly,
The hapless path we all travel,
Would be not a lie,
But the sad,
Sorrowful truth.
For it knows,
In it's so many ages it has shared with this world and others,
As a husband knows as he weeps by the deathbed of his wife,
There are no happy endings.
