Thief:: I am a liar; I am a thief
Built these walls of deceit
I am a sinner; I am a cheat
Long only for my soul to keep
I am a thief
I am a thief

I need a love to no avail
I need a wind to catch these sails
I need to bathe in waters that never fail,
To cleanse my shadow soul
A clear direction at the fork in the road
But my heart screams through the gale
I am a thief!

I've dug holes in the yards
Of others' hearts from afar
I call out their insecure thoughts
Their angels tried so hard and fought
But I am a liar; I am a thief!

I need a love to no avail
I need a wind to catch these sails
I need to bathe in waters that never fail,

Masquerade Illusion:: Riding the winds of morning
Dwelling by oceans afar
Hearts developed by mourning
Light is enveloped by dark

Formed in utter seclusion
Chambers of the heart
Masquerade illusion
Immersed in spark

Their wicked lies tainted in hate
Fire falls; mouths agape
Fleeting hope at stake
Yet the righteous praise one name

Formed in utter seclusion
Chambers of the heart
Masquerade illusion
Immersed in spark

You knit me together
So bring us together
You knit us together
So bring all together

Formed in utter seclusion
Chambers of the heart
Masquerade illusion
Immersed in spark

Tightrope:: Am I on a tightrope?
Stretching too thin?
Am I on a plank,
About to jump in?

Am I at a circus,
Am I at a fair?
Am I here or was I there?

I refuse to walk the high-wire
If it means I'll pass you by
Balancing, my mind's wired
Secretly enjoying the limelight

But if I must perform this feat
Remove the safety net beneath
Sky-walking; it's both of you I see

Am I on a tightrope?
Stretching too thin?
Am I on a plank,
About to jump in?

Am I at a circus,
Am I at a fair?
Am I here or was I there?

Searching for the right heavenly abode
Which bitter or blue one is in the worst boat?
Slack-wire's taught tension shifts a mode
Fallin

A Ghost of a Lie::
Why flirt with the lion?
When light is calling your name?
As the darkness falls over you,
Still you choose to remain the same.

A ghost of a lie; to abide and get by
A wayward flinch at the glow of the light;
The glow in his eyes

Declare what you are
Raise the heaviest flag
The line will set you apart
Light is armed; you wear rags

You stumble in the dark
Numb; without pain
As your life falls apart
You care not what light you've gained

A ghost of a lie; to abide and get by
A wayward flinch at the glow of the light;
The glow in his eyes

Declare what you are
Raise the heaviest flag
The line will set you apart
Light is arm

Blue Waves in Motion:: Sky burning,

Crumbling walls

Neck and neck,

The Darkness falls

Eyes of the ocean,

His plan is set in motion

Coils of rope

Tied 'round his wrists

Wondering now

The life he's missed

Eyes of the ocean,

His plan is set in motion

Hidden:: Hidden::

There is serenity in this place
This calming feel can erase
My hidden memories of disgrace

Secrets rise
       Like the butterfly
Beat
       Of
My
       heart

All we know...
       is the dark.

Falling like snow
You find yourself instead waging your woes
When this stops, no one knows

We'll stay awake beneath the trees

A sky of diamonds; just for us..."

Very nice! But I would try and soften the edges of the yellow at the left side of the iris. It gives an unfinished look but I understand how. So amazed by the result that you miss the little details

^{Thanks, haha. x) And you're right; that probably would've created a more finished look. This is from a long time ago, though. I'm much more experienced now. :]}

April's Challenge: Stalk a $taffer or CV Results

*Kneeling-Glory May 15, 2012 68 comments

In April, we asked group members to stalk a CV or $taff member to help dispel the myth that these people are too important for everyday deviants to get to know. In fact, many of them produce great art and have fun personalities just like you and me! Here's what we found out:Staffers:iconmoo nbeam1...
